    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy projects focus on clinical research in newborns with, or at risk, for brain injury. I use EEG in at-risk neonates to better understand the underlying pathophysiology of risk factors that may lead to worse outcomes. I am particularly interested in neonatal seizures and how they may exacerbate perinatal brain injury with a goal to identify treatments that might protect the vulnerable brain. I am also interested in EEG in other pediatric populations, as well as medical ethics and global health.

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe precise and robust regulation of gene expression is a cornerstone for complex biological life. Research in our laboratory is focused on understanding how regulatory information encoded by the genome is integrated with the transcriptional machinery and chromatin context to allow for emergence of form and function during human embryogenesis and evolution, and how perturbations in this process lead to disease.

    BioUnderstanding mechanisms of metabolic regulation in physiology and disease forms the basis for developing therapies to treat diseases in which metabolism is perturbed. We devise novel mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics technologies, combined with data science, to systematically discover mechanisms of metabolic regulation over protein function. Our strategies established the first tissue-specific landscape of protein cysteine redox regulation during aging, elucidating mechanisms of redox signaling in physiology that remained elusive for decades. We also leverage the genetic diversity of outbred populations to systematically annotate protein function and protein-metabolite co-regulation. The aim of our research program is to develop next-generation MS-based strategies to understand mechanisms of metabolic regulation in aging, metabolic disease, and cancer, and to use this knowledge as a basis to develop translational therapeutics.

    Clinical Associate Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
    Clinical Associate Professor, Clinical Informatics

    BioDr. James Xie is a board certified pediatrician, pediatric anesthesiologist, and clinical informaticist at Stanford University School of Medicine. His goal is to improve patient care and promote health equity with health information technologies. Currently he serves as a clinical informaticist and Epic physician builder at Stanford Medicine Children's Health. He holds additional appointments in the Division of Obstetric Anesthesiology and Maternal Health and Division of Clinical Informatics.

    Dr. Xie studied computer science and medicine at Stanford University, followed by a combined residency in general pediatrics at Boston Children's Hospital and Boston Medical Center and anesthesiology at Brigham and Women's Hospital. After residency, he completed a fellowship in pediatric anesthesiology at Stanford Children's Health where he subsequently joined the faculty.
