Izabela Kowalczyk
Postdoctoral Scholar, Developmental Biology
BioDr. Izabela Kowalczyk is a postdoctoral fellow in the laboratory of Dr. Sarah Bowling, Department of Developmental Biology. She is studying embryonic development, with a focus on heart valve formation and the influence of the maternal environment on this process. Dr. Kowalczyk completed her Ph.D. at the Max-Delbrück-Center for Molecular Medicine in Berlin, under the supervision of Dr. Annette Hammes, where she investigated cell and tissue morphogenesis during early forebrain development. Her work identified novel components of Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) signaling and primary cilia biology, providing new insights into the variable penetrance of holoprosencephaly in mouse models.

Rani Kronenberger
Postdoctoral Scholar, Bioengineering
BioRani is a Belgian MD, PhD candidate, former surgery resident, and Stanford Biodesign Fellow.
She graduated magna cum laude from VUB, where she joined Brugada’s heart lab to study complications in arrhythmia ablation and investigate prevention strategies. She has co-authored over 20 peer-reviewed publications, first-authored two novel surgical techniques, and presented her work internationally. Her PhD research focuses on finding eligible 3D printing materials for patient-tailored epicardial guides in hybrid arrhythmia ablation. She has completed the Venture Advancement Program at MIT, and earned a Laboratory Animal Science Certification from KU Leuven. She is currently an Innovation Fellow at Stanford Biodesign, focused on need-driven healthcare innovation.
