Zahra Shokri Varniab
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiology
BioZahra Shokri Varniab, MD, studied medicine at Tehran University of Medicine Sciences, Iran, and earned her medical degree in 2020. Her goal in novel cellular and molecular imaging is to develop novel in vivo imaging approaches to visualize, characterize and quantify molecular and cellular processes involved in developing brain tumors. She intends to utilize non-invasive imaging techniques to assess tumor microenvironment to understand their role in cancer, develop a method for determining tumor profiles, and also using brain MR Imaging to assess treatment response. She hopes cancer to be history.

Shashi Singh
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiology
BioAs a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University's Department of Radiology since 2023, I have the privilege of contributing to Dr. Heike E. Daldrup-Link's laboratory, where my research focuses on clinical and translational molecular imaging. My work is dedicated to the development and application of artificial intelligence algorithms for the automated detection and monitoring of pediatric cancers, including lymphoma and sarcomas, using PET and MRI. This encompasses AI-driven multimodal pediatric lymphoma detection, automating the Deauville score, and predicting post-chemotherapy responses in pediatric osteosarcomas. Additionally, I am investigating the effects of iron-oxide nanoparticles on tumor-associated macrophages in osteosarcoma using MRI. My professional journey in medicine began with two years as a physician in Nepal (2019-2021), where I gained a profound understanding of diverse and complex disease conditions. Subsequently, I served as a research scholar at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (2021-2023), working with PET/CT using various radiotracers across multiple domains, including hematological malignancies, aging, musculoskeletal, neurological, psychiatric, infectious, inflammatory, and cardiovascular diseases. Outside of my professional pursuits, I enjoy exploring local restaurants, going for long drives, hiking, and playing sports such as soccer, cricket, and volleyball. I also love spending time on the beaches.

Muhammad Nasir Ullah
Postdoctoral Scholar, Molecular Imaging Program at Stanford
BioMuhammad Nasir Ullah has received a BS degree in Electronic Engineering from International Islamic University, Islamabad (IIUI) Pakistan in Jun 2012 and an integrated MS + Ph.D. degree in Bio-Convergence Engineering from Korea University, Seoul, South Korea under the supervision of Professor Jung-Yeol Yeom in Feb 2020. His Ph.D. thesis was focused on detector design for Nuclear Medicine (NM) system and NM-Ultrasound hybrid systems.
His area of research interest is radiation detection and measurement for medical applications. He has been working on detector design for Positron Emission Tomography (PET) system, intraoperative gamma probe detector, beta/gamma discrimination, and hybrid Ultrasound-gamma probe. He has also been working on frontend discrete circuit designs for various types of radiation and Ultrasound (US) detectors. He has published 6 peer-reviewed articles as the first author while 2 as co-author. He also has 4-patents under his name in S. Korea.
