    Associate Professor of Medicine (Oncolocy)

    BioDr. Joshua Gruber is an Associate Professor of Medicine in the division of Oncology at Stanford University Medical Center. He received his Bachelors of Arts, Summa Cum Laude, in biochemistry and physics from the University of Pennsylvania in 2001. He then graduated from the Medical Scientist Training Program at the University of Pennsylvania where he performed doctoral studies in cancer biology and biochemistry. He completed internship and residency in Internal Medicine at Stanford, then was a Clinical Fellowship in Medical Oncology and also a Postdoctoral Fellow in Genetics at Stanford, working in the laboratory of Michael Snyder on integrative genomics of hereditary breast cancer. He is currently has a clinical focus on treating patients with metastatic breast cancer and triple-negative breast cancer and conducts clinical trials on novel therapeutics for these diseases. His laboratory research interests include the molecular biology of breast cancer initiation, the intersection of tumor immunology with cancer growth pathways and the development of molecular tools to interrogate neoplastic tissues.

    BioI'm a researcher at Stanford's Digital Health Team within the Center for Biodesign and at the Max-Planck Institute at the Center for Adaptive Rationality. In my research I focus on digital interventions for well-being and user autonomy through app-based tools and on-platform interventions.

    Besides my academic affiliations, I'm the Scientific Director of the one sec app (https://one-sec.app) and Structured app (https://structured.app), and the Science Board Director at the Prosocial Design Network (https://www.prosocialdesign.org), leading their research on digital interventions and creating frameworks and guidelines for use by researchers and practitioners in the field.

  • Murilo Guedes

    Murilo Guedes

    Fellow in Medicine - Med/Nephrology

    BioMurilo Guedes, MD, PhD, is a Fellow in Medicine within the Department of Nephrology and part of the Translational Investigator Program (TIP) within the Department of Medicine at Stanford.

    Dr. Guedes’s research is dedicated to improving the lives of patients with chronic kidney disease. His work draws on clinical epidemiology, international patient cohorts, and clinical trials to identify opportunities to improve care across the spectrum of kidney disease. A central focus is understanding how anemia and iron deficiency relate to cardiovascular outcomes, survival, physical function, and quality of life, including the implications of iron deficiency beyond anemia.

    His research also examines how dialysis treatments and differences in clinical practice relate to patients’ health and daily experiences, with particular attention to fatigue, physical activity, and recovery after dialysis. His broader work explores gaps in kidney disease detection, risk assessment, and treatment. Across these efforts, he aims to translate clinical evidence into practical strategies that reduce the burden of kidney disease and help patients live longer, healthier lives.

  • Matthew Gunther, MD, MA

    Matthew Gunther, MD, MA

    Clinical Associate Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences - Medical Psychiatry
    Clinical Associate Professor (By courtesy), Medicine - Primary Care and Population Health

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Gunther’s scholarly work focuses on improving psychiatric care for medically complex patients through integrated behavioral health, medical education, and consultation-liaison psychiatry, with particular emphasis on psychiatry-led education for internal medicine residents, psychiatric interviewing, trauma-informed communication, delirium, catatonia, and psychopharmacology in the medically ill.

  • Mengni Guo

    Mengni Guo

    Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Oncology

    BioDr. Mengni Guo is a medical oncologist in the Division of Oncology at Stanford University School of Medicine and a member of the Stanford Breast Cancer Program. She specializes in the care of patients with breast cancer, from active treatment through long-term survivorship. Dr. Guo emphasizes an individualized, team-based approach, working closely with patients and multidisciplinary specialists to develop treatment plans that reflect each patient’s clinical needs, personal values, and long-term quality of life.

    Dr. Guo’s research focuses on breast cancer survivorship, particularly metabolic health during and after cancer treatment and the prevention and management of long-term treatment effects. She also uses large real-world datasets to study breast cancer treatment patterns and outcomes and to identify strategies to improve long-term health after cancer therapy. Her research has been presented at national meetings, including the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting.
