Francisco M. De La Vega
Adjunct Professor, Biomedical Data Science
BioFrancisco De La Vega is a distinguished geneticist and computational biologist, and an experienced technical executive, widely recognized for his expertise in clinical and population genomics, and bioinformatics. Currently serving as the Vice President of Hereditary Disease at Tempus Labs, Francisco is spearheading the development of comprehensive germline genetic tests and conducting innovative research into racial disparities in cancer leveraging Tempus’ multimodal Real-World Data. His work focuses on uncovering the connections between genetic ancestry and cancer genome mutational profiles that may help explain the differences in cancer incidence and outcomes across races and ethnicities. In addition to his role at Tempus Labs, Francisco is an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Biomedical Data Science at Stanford University School of Medicine and is a member of the Board of Directors of the International Society of Computational Biology, serving from 2022 to 2025.
Francisco teaches BIODS-235: "Best practices for developing data science software for clinical and healthcare applications" every Winter quarter. -
Jeffrey Decker
Program Director, Precourt Institute for Energy
BioJeff Decker is managing director of the Technology Transition for Defense Program and co-instructor of Hacking for Defense course at Stanford University. Hacking for Defense uses the Lean Startup technique to tackle complex problems critical to the government around national security, energy networks, cyber security, and AI, and develop new technologies with teams of engineers, scientists, MBA’s and policy experts. With the program, Jeff has taught more than 300 students, faculty, and government personnel user-centered design from over 2 dozen colleges and universities, helping them solve more than 75 unique national security challenges for the Defense Department and related industries. Several student teams have gone on to form companies winning Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs, gaining venture capital funding, and one team even became a program of record. Jeff’s work and research focuses generally on defense innovation and dual-use technologies, with a focus on developing go-to-defense market strategies for technology startups and fostering defense-industry partnerships. With his Lean Startup experience and expertise with Hacking for Defense, plus his military service, Jeff is a sought-after expert when it comes to national security and solving Defense Department challenges.
