James C. Dickerson, MD MS
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Oncology
BioDr. Dickerson is a medical oncologist in the Division of Medical Oncology at Stanford University School of Medicine, specializing in the care of patients with breast cancer. In addition to seeing patients in the clinic, he researches how health policy, data science, and emerging technologies can improve cancer care delivery. His research group focuses on three core objectives: (1) developing financially sustainable cancer care programs, (2) analyzing large clinical and administrative datasets to identify gaps where policy can improve equity and outcomes, and (3) conducting clinical and implementation research to determine the most effective ways to deliver high-quality, evidence-based oncology care.
Across these objectives, Dr. Dickerson integrates traditional real-world data analytics with modern natural language processing approaches, including large language models, to study cancer care delivery. His group develops and applies LLM-based tools to improve the extraction, structuring, and interpretation of complex clinical information from electronic health records, to enhance clinical decision-making, care coordination, and health policy evaluation.
Dr. Dickerson received his undergraduate degree from Vanderbilt University and graduated magna cum laude from the University of Mississippi Medical Center. He completed his internship and residency in Internal Medicine at Stanford University, followed by fellowship training in Hematology and Oncology. During his fellowship, Dr. Dickerson earned a Master’s degree in Health Policy and completed post-doctoral research in the Department of Health Policy. -

Thomas Duane Dieringer
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Infectious Diseases
BioI have worked over the last 10 years to build a foundation for a career in academic infectious diseases by providing thoughtful dedicated care for my patients, conducting clinically focused research, and remaining an engaged educator for developing physicians. My passion for the study of infectious diseases has led me to complete a general infectious diseases fellowship and additional focused training in transplant and immunocompromised infectious diseases. I will continue to work diligently with my colleagues focusing on the growth of medical learners, advancing patient centered clinical research, and striving to provide the highest quality of care to patients.
