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. -
Simon Thalén
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiological Sciences Laboratory
BioI am a clinical physiology resident at Karolinska University Hospital and completed my thesis on cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). With a background in mathematics, I am trying to live at the intersection of mathematics, technology, and medicine. My thesis focused on MRI evaluation of constrictive heart diseases, such as pericardial effusion and constrictive pericarditis. I used phase contrast MRI to measure respiratory variation in mitral and tricuspid peak early blood flow velocities and T1 mapping to characterize pericardial effusion fluid.
