She is also a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Medicine, Division of Pulmonary, Allergy & Critical Care Medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Tirumalasetty completed fellowship training in allergy and immunology from the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, IL.

    She specializes in diagnosing and treating asthma and food and drug allergies in adults. Her clinical focus areas also include chronic cough, immunotherapy to prevent allergies, and biologics to treat asthma. Biologics are used to prevent airway inflammation and other asthma symptoms. Dr. Tirumalasetty works closely with her patients to provide a comprehensive evaluation and an innovative, patient-centered care plan.

    Dr. Tirumalasetty has been co-investigator in multiple clinical trials funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Her research interests include studying health inequity in food allergy, sustainability in medicine, and severe allergic asthma. Dr. Tirumalasetty is the primary investigator on a research project supported by Stanford Medicine’s Spectrum Pilot Grant. She is collaborating with a multidisciplinary team of physicians within Stanford. The Green Inhaler Pilot Project focuses on educating Stanford Health Care providers and encouraging them to prescribe inhalers that emit lower levels of greenhouse gases.

    Dr. Tirumalasetty has presented to her colleagues at lectures all over the nation. Her presentations have covered a range of topics, including atopy in asthma, managing food and drug allergies, and anaphylaxis (severe allergic reaction). Dr. Tirumalasetty has been interviewed as an allergy expert for several articles in national publications, including The New York Times. She serves as a medical advisor on the board of directors for Securing Safe Food, a nonprofit organization that works with food pantries to provide allergen-free food to people with food allergies.

    Dr. Tirumalasetty’s articles have appeared in numerous peer-reviewed journals, including The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, Journal of Asthma, Expert Review of Clinical Immunology, and Annual Review of Immunology. She published a book chapter about immunotherapy for food allergies in Reference Module in Food Science. She has served as an ad hoc peer reviewer for Clinical and Translational Allergy, Allergy Journal, and World Allergy Organization Journal.

    Dr. Tirumalasetty is a fellow of the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology and the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology. She is a member of several professional organizations, including the European Academy of Allergy & Clinical Immunology; World Allergy Organization; Western Society of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology; American Thoracic Society; and California Society of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology.

  • Christina (Christy) Tise, MD, PhD

    Christina (Christy) Tise, MD, PhD

    Assistant Professor of Pediatrics (genetics)

    BioDr. Christina (Christy) Tise is a physician scientist and Assistant Professor in the Division of Medical Genetics at Stanford with subspecialty training in Clinical Biochemical Genetics. Dr. Tise has developed multiple research projects focused on the clinical impact of biochemical genetic conditions in pregnancy and newborn health, including a project focused on unforeseen diagnoses in individuals initially identified through state newborn screening which has resulted in a number of publications.

    Dr. Tise also researches the genetic etiologies of recurrent pregnancy loss and the impact of inherited metabolic conditions on human reproduction. She is involved in several research initiatives including contributing to the development of TRIOS, a multi-site, NIH-funded research study to evaluate the genetic causes of recurrent pregnancy loss. In serving as the primary research mentor for a recent Masters of Genetic Counseling graduate, Dr. Tise’s research on carrier and newborn screening has highlighted areas of ancestry-related healthcare inequities specific to the field of Medical Genetics.

    Dr. Tise’s primary academic and advocacy interests are embodied in this work, specifically the overlap between biochemical and molecular analysis, and the clinical utility of innovative technologies for diagnosis and treatment of genetic disease. This is an unbelievably thrilling time for the field of Medical Genetics, as it promises immense progress and opportunity for all fields of medicine, and Dr. Tise is determined, honored, and incredibly excited to be a part of it!

    Research interests: newborn screening, carrier screening, prenatal screening, genetics of recurrent pregnancy loss, biochemical genetics, novel gene discovery, variant interpretation, founder populations, diagnostic genetic testing, bioethics, GWAS/ExWAS

  • Sara L. (Sally) Tobin

    Sara L. (Sally) Tobin

    Sr Research Scholar, Pediatrics - Center for Biomedical Ethics

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsTobin is a Senior Research Scholar at the Stanford Center for Biomedical Ethics. She obtained her Ph.D. in Developmental Biology from the University of Washington and did postdoctoral research in Genetics at the University of California, Berkeley and in Biochemistry at the University of California, San Francisco. She became a faculty member at the University of Oklahoma College of Medicine in 1983 and moved to Stanford University in 1996. Her research contributions have been published in prestigious journals such as Cell, Nature, Genes & Development, Neuron, and Journal of Cell Biology.

    Projects

    With her collaborator, graphic designer Ann Boughton, Tobin has completed the production of three educational multimedia CD-ROM discs about the genetic revolution in medical care sparked by the rapid advances in our knowledge about the human genome. An on-line version derived and updated from these CDs is pending release through Twisted Ladder Media, and is entitled: "The New Genetics: Medicine and the Human Genome. Molecular Concepts, Applications, and Ramifications." In addition, Tobin and Boughton have collaborated on educational websites on inherited risk of breast cancer and on hereditary colorectal cancer with the Stanford Cancer Genetics Clinic.

    Tobin's current major research interests include an educational project funded by the National Science Foundation to create and evaluate innovative modules for undergraduates entitled, "The New Genetics: Electronic Tools for Educational Innovation." The modules are presented in on-line form as an electronic course and are accompanied by workbook exercises and problem sets. The content includes principles of genetics, molecular genetic technologies, applications in medicine, environmental biology, agriculture, and society, as well as implications. In addition, she is collaborating on two projects that are exploring the ramifications of using genetic information about addiction risk in the judicial system.

    Tobin is a member of the Benchside Consultation Team for the Center for the Integration of Research on Genetics and Ethics, and she evaluates clinical protocols for ethical issues for the Clinical Translational Research Program.
