Christopher Lee-Messer, MD, PhD
Clinical Associate Professor, Pediatric Neurology
Clinical Associate Professor (By courtesy), PediatricsCurrent Research and Scholarly InterestsMy chief clinical focus is in pediatric epilepsy, especially how epilepsy affects learning and development. For my research, I background in neural development and computational neuroscience towards developing better learning algorithms and applying the latest techniques in machine learning for better diagnosis and treatment of disease.

Mary Leonard
Arline and Pete Harman Professor, Professor of Pediatrics (Nephrology), of Medicine (Nephrology) and, by courtesy, of Epidemiology and Population Health
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy multidisciplinary research program is focused on (1) the detrimental effects of glucocorticoids, sarcopenia and inflammation on bone development in pediatric diseases, (2) the long-term effects of childhood cancer on bone and muscle quality, (3) the assessment of renal osteodystrophy using novel micro-imaging techniques, (4) the effects of vitamin D deficiency on physical function and cardiovascular disease, and (5) the evaluation of biomechanical interventions as anabolic bone therapies.

Richard Jonathan Levy
Professor of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine (Pediatric) and, by courtesy, of Pediatrics (Cardiology)
BioRichard J. Levy, MD, FAAP is Professor at Stanford University School of Medicine and Chief of Pediatric Cardiac Anesthesiology at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital. He has been an NIH-funded clinician-scientist for over 20 years. His laboratory currently investigates the neurotoxic and cardiotoxic effects of anesthetics in the developing brain and developing heart, respectively. Dr. Levy specifically focuses on both the mechanisms of action of anesthetics within mitochondria. He is currently funded to study and develop a benzoquinone molecule as a novel anesthetic. He is an Associate Editor for Frontiers in Pediatrics, Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, and Survey of Anesthesiology and serves as a regular reviewer for Anesthesiology, British Journal of Anaesthesiology, Critical Care Medicine, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Neurotoxicology and Teratology, PLOS One, The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, World Journal for Pediatric and Congenital Heart Surgery, and the American Journal of Physiology. In addition, Dr. Levy has served as an ad hoc reviewer for Science, Nature Medicine, Scientific Reports, and Nature Reviews Cardiology.

David B. Lewis
Naddisy Foundation Professor of Pediatric Food Allergy, Immunology, and Asthma
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy laboratory is focused on defining cellular and molecular mechanisms that limit T cell responses to vaccines and pathogens during normal early postnatal development and in cases of inherited genetic immunodeficiencies. We are also determinomg how these limitations in immunity can be overcome by using novel approaches for vaccine adjuvants for influenza vaccine and by using catalytically inactive Cas proteins for inducing endogenous gene expression.
