Ramzi Emanuel Dudum
Member (Postdoc), Cardiovascular Institute
BioDr. Dudum is a cardiologist and population health expert working to develop novel risk prediction methods and implementation strategies to create practices and systems that allow for reductions in cardiovascular disease. He completed a Masters in Public Health at Johns Hopkins concentrating in epidemiology and biostatistics and a Doctorate of Medicine at George Washington University.
He completed internal medicine residency training as part of the Osler Medical Service, where he worked under the mentorship of Drs. Roger Blumenthal and Michael Blaha to study improving cardiovascular risk prediction and coronary artery calcium. Given his focus on population health and implementation science, he also helped launch and refine risk adjustment tools and implemented guideline-directed medical care pathways. During his time there, he was recognized for his clinical acumen and dedication to patient care.
He came to Stanford for his cardiovascular medicine fellowship and continued research in coronary artery calcium under the mentorship of Drs. David Maron and Fatima Rodriguez while also conducting cardiovascular health implementation science work under the mentorship of Dr. Steve Asch. He serves as the co-investigator of a prospective randomized trial testing the effects of notification of incidental coronary artery calcium on statin initiation rates among those with and without cardiovascular disease (NCT 05588895). He has worked with hospital leaders to implement digital health and artificial intelligence tools, creating the infrastructure for the prospective use of AI-algorithms on radiology studies. As a preventive cardiologist and population health expert, he leads efforts in the preventive cardiology section related to improving cardiovascular health. -
Caroline Duncombe
Postdoctoral Scholar, Immunity Transplant Infection
BioDr. Caroline Duncombe is a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Institute for Immunity, Transplantation, and Infection at Stanford University. Her research broadly explores how sex-based differences influence immune responses to infectious diseases. She applies systems-level approaches to investigate molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying immune variation, with the goal of informing more equitable and effective interventions.
Dr. Duncombe earned her PhD in Pathobiology from the University of Washington, where she pursued interdisciplinary research integrating systems biology, immunology, epidemiology, endocrinology, and parasitology. Her work has contributed to a deeper understanding of how sex and sex hormones shape host-pathogen interactions and vaccine responses.
In addition to her academic research, Dr. Duncombe is committed to science communication. She has produced science-focused comedy shows for over four years, using storytelling and humor to make complex scientific ideas more accessible.

Vijay Prakash Dwivedi
Postdoctoral Scholar, Computer Science
BioVijay Prakash Dwivedi is a Postdoctoral Scholar in Computer Science working on graph representation learning. He holds a PhD from Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore. His work has made contributions to advancing benchmarks for Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), graph positional and structural encodings, and Graph Transformers as universal deep neural networks for graph-based learning. He has also contributed to the integration of parametric knowledge in large language models (LLMs) for diverse applications, particularly in healthcare. Several of the methods he developed during his PhD are now widely adopted in state-of-the-art Graph Transformers and other leading graph learning models. For his research, he received one of the Outstanding PhD Thesis Awards from the NTU College of Computing and Data Science. Vijay has over 7 years experience in both academia and industry with institutions including NTU, Snap Inc., Sony, and ASUS.

Duncan Eddy
Postdoctoral Scholar, Aeronautics and Astronautics
BioDuncan Eddy is a research fellow in the Stanford University Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics. He completed his PhD in Aerospace Engineering from Stanford, funded by the National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate Fellowship. His current research is focused on decision-making in safety-critical, climate, and space systems, where operational decisions must be made quickly and correctly in complex environments while still being explainable and understandable by human stakeholders.
He is currently the Executive Director of the Stanford Center for AI Safety, and a post-doctoral researcher with appointments in Mineral-X and the Stanford Intelligent Systems Laboratory (SISL).
Prior to this, He started and led the Spacecraft Operations Group at Capella Space, the first US Commercial Synthetic Aperture Radar Earth Imaging constellation. There he developed the first fully-automated mission operations system, realizing lights-out tasking-to-delivery of radar satellite data for a commercial constellation. He subsequently started and led the Constellation Operations and Space Safety Groups at Project Kuiper. Most recently, he was a Principal Applied Scientist at Amazon Web Services, where he worked on building software services for large-scale distributed edge compute applications. -

José Ramón Enríquez
Postdoctoral Scholar, Business
BioI am a postdoctoral fellow at the Golub Capital Social Impact Lab and the Stanford Digital Economy Lab, where I collaborate with Susan Athey, Erik Brynjolfsson, and Sandy Pentland.
I study how digital technologies enhance governance—and therefore prosperity—in developing contexts. My recent work is centered on reducing misinformation sharing and enhancing online deliberation through the use of Generative AI.
I received my Ph.D. in Political Economy and Government (PEG) from Harvard. I graduated from Instituto Tecnológico Autónomo de México (ITAM) in Mexico City with a B.A. in Economics and a B.A. in Political Science. -
Ahmet Görkem Er
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiology
BioAhmet Görkem Er, M.D., Ph.D., is a physician-scientist and postdoctoral fellow in Integrative Biomedical Imaging Informatics (IBIIS) at Stanford University. He graduated from Istanbul University Faculty of Medicine and completed dual residency training in internal medicine and infectious diseases and clinical microbiology at Hacettepe University. He also has a Ph.D. in medical informatics from Middle East Technical University.
As a Fulbright Ph.D. Dissertation Research Grantee (2022–2023), Dr. Er conducted research at the Stanford Center for Biomedical Informatics Research, focusing on multimodal data integration in COVID-19 patients. This work resulted in a publication in NPJ Digital Medicine demonstrating the value of combining clinical, imaging, and viral genomic data for improved disease modeling. He returned to Stanford in 2024 as a visiting researcher and is currently a postdoctoral fellow, where he combines his clinical background with advanced computational methods.
Dr. Er’s research focuses on developing artificial intelligence and multimodal data fusion approaches for complex diseases. His work integrates a broad spectrum of inputs, including medical imaging, histopathology, clinical data, genomics, and spatial transcriptomics, to improve patient stratification and support data-driven clinical decision-making. -

Ali Etemadi
Postdoctoral Scholar, Nephrology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am a clinician and data scientist focusing on drawing causal inferences from observational data when randomized controlled trials are not feasible. Currently, my work centers on patients with late-stage chronic kidney disease, a rapidly growing population for which evidence is limited due to their frequent exclusion from RCTs. At the moment, I aim to move towards precision medicine approaches to optimize outcomes for these patients.
