Saurabh Sharma
Postdoctoral Scholar, General and Vascular Surgery
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe develop strategies to transport immunotherapeutic molecules across the blood-brain barrier for imaging and treating brain metastatic cancer. Currently, under the mentorship of Dr. Amanda Kirane, I have continued my work in cancer-targeted nanotechnology for the treatment of melanoma brain metastases. Immunotherapy of small peptides, small molecules.

Seth Andrew Sharp
Postdoctoral Scholar, Endocrinology and Metabolism
BioSeth is a Larry L. Hillblom Postdoctoral Fellow in the Translational Genomics of Diabetes laboratory under Dr. Anna Gloyn with co-mentorship in statistical and population genetics from Dr. Manuel Rivas. Seth completed a B.E. in Applied Mathematics before studying a PhD at the University of Exeter with Drs. Richard Oram and Michael Weedon in which he spent significant time at the Pacific Northwest Research Institute developing new statistical models for polygenic risk scores to predict, screen and understand Type 1 diabetes and other autoimmune disorders with screening expert Dr. William Hagopian. Seth was further seconded to the Alan Turing Institute in London where he used deep learning methods to develop neonatal blood spot polygenic risk screening panels. His postdoctoral studies at Stanford now focus on applying "GWAS-in-a-Dish' and "Polygenic Risk Score to Function (PRS2F)' approaches with rich cellular phenotyping from human donor islets to understand the molecular determinants of impaired insulin secretion in diabetes. He is involved in a number of national human islet research networks and gene-perturbation screen efforts aimed at better understanding diabetes, as well as clinical translation studies at Stanford aimed at improving precision medicine approaches to diabetes.

Viktoryia Shautsova
Postdoctoral Scholar, Applied Physics
BioViktoryia is a Stanford Science Fellow with a background in physics, nanotechnology, and material science. Viktoryia received her bachelor’s degree in computer science from Belarus State University and a PhD in physics from Imperial College London, followed by a postdoc in material science at Oxford University. Viktoryia's passion lies in building the next generation of bioelectronic devices that interface with the brain and heart. At Stanford, Viktoryia is part of GLAM and Wu Tsai Neuroscience Institute, working with Nick Melosh, Bianxiao Cui and Mark Brongersma to develop novel nanoscale devices for label-free optical sensing of bioelectrical signals produced by neural and cardiac cells and nongenetic optical stimulation of neural activity.
