Melissa Steele-Ogus
Postdoctoral Scholar, Pathology
BioMelissa Steele-Ogus grew up in Berkeley, California. She received a BS in Environmental Sciences and BA in Molecular Biology from the University of California, Berkeley, in 2012. She earned a PhD in Biology from the University of Washington in 2021, studying the actin cytoskeleton of Giardia lamblia. In her free time, she enjoys dancing, baking, and birdwatching. She may be secretly some sort of weird bug, but probably isn't.

Barathi Subramanian
Postdoctoral Scholar, Pathology
BioMy research lies at the intersection of computer vision and deep learning, focusing on the development of intelligent systems to advance large-scale image analytics in computational pathology, emphasizing histopathology-based survival analysis, whole slide image classification, and multi-modal representation learning. Through this research, I aim to bridge perceptual understanding and medical reasoning, enabling models to achieve high predictive accuracy and offer clinically interpretable insights for precision medicine.

Azusa Terasaki
Postdoctoral Scholar, Pathology
BioAzusa Terasaki, MD, PhD, is a Postdoctoral scholar in the Department of Pathology at Stanford University School of Medicine. Her research focuses on tumor immunology and cancer metabolism, with a particular interest in mitochondrial transfer between cancer and immune cells and its role in immune suppression and metastasis.
Dr. Terasaki received her medical degree and PhD in Japan, where she completed her surgical training and is a board-certified surgeon with additional certifications as a breast specialist and in cancer therapy. During her clinical career, she developed a strong interest in translational research that bridges fundamental discoveries and patient care.
Her current work investigates how cancer cells reprogram immune cells through organelle transfer, integrating imaging, flow cytometry, and multi-omic approaches to uncover novel mechanisms of tumor–immune interaction. Her goal is to identify new therapeutic targets and biomarkers to improve cancer treatment outcomes. -
Lev Tsypin
Postdoctoral Scholar, Pathology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am working with Botryococcus braunii, a species of freshwater microscopic algae. This organism is unique among plants in that it secretes copious amounts of oil that is chemically analogous to petroleum. This organism may be the key to developing a cheap and sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, but we do not yet have the tools to engineer or optimize its oil production. My work aims to bridge this gap.
