Mustafa Caglar Sahin
Visiting Instructor, Neurosurgery
BioMustafa Caglar Sahin, MD is a neurosurgeon and research scholar at Stanford University with a primary focus on neuro-oncology and stereotactic radiosurgery. He completed his medical education at Erciyes University and his neurosurgical residency at Gazi University. Following his residency training, he has worked as a board-certified neurosurgeon, gaining independent clinical experience in the management of intracranial tumors and complex cranial pathologies.
Dr. Sahin’s clinical practice includes the treatment of meningiomas, vestibular schwannomas, pituitary adenomas, gliomas, and other intracranial tumors. He has experience in microsurgical tumor resection, multimodal treatment planning, and stereotactic radiosurgery applications. His work also involves outcome evaluation and longitudinal patient follow-up in neuro-oncology.
In parallel with his clinical career, Dr. Sahin has developed an active research portfolio integrating clinical neurosurgery with molecular tumor biology and computational approaches. A central focus of his research has been telomere biology and long non-coding RNA regulation in meningiomas, particularly investigating the role of TERRA expression and telomere dynamics as potential biomarkers for tumor monitoring and prognosis. His work in this field has been recognized with the Best Young Meningioma Researcher Award.
He has also contributed to research exploring artificial intelligence applications in neurosurgery, including studies evaluating large language models in neurosurgical education and comparative analyses of AI systems in brain MRI interpretation. Through his academic work, he aims to contribute to the development of data-informed, evidence-based strategies for improving clinical decision-making in patients with intracranial tumors.
Dr. Sahin is a member of the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies, the European Skull Base Society, and the Turkish Neurosurgical Association. His long-term vision is to bridge surgical precision with computational intelligence and translational tumor biology to improve evidence-based decision-making in neuro-oncology. -
Sha Sajadieh
AI Index Lead, Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI)
BioSha leads the AI Index at the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI). The Index is a program built on longitudinal frameworks to measure AI's global trajectory. It also produces the Global AI Vibrancy Tool, an interactive platform that enables cross-country comparisons of AI activity across dozens of indicators.
In her role, Sha manages the direction and development for the AI Index Report, alongside the AI Index Steering Committee, an interdisciplinary group of experts from across academia and industry. The report is used by policymakers and global industry leaders, and has been cited in major outlets including The New York Times, Bloomberg, and The Guardian.
Before joining Stanford HAI, Sha spent nearly a decade in product leadership roles at companies like Google and Netflix, building consumer and enterprise products in media and entertainment.
Sha holds a B.A. in Interdisciplinary Studies from the University of California, Berkeley. -
