Neelam Goyal, MD
Clinical Professor, Adult Neurology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Goyal's research interests involve monitoring and managing the short and long-term toxicity of immunosuppressive agents used in the treatment of immune-mediated neuromuscular disorders. She is actively involved in a grant-supported project investigating steroid toxicity in patients with myasthenia gravis.
She also serves as the Wellbeing Co-Director for the Neurology Department, working on a grant-supported project aimed at mitigating the adverse impact of work on personal relationships. -
Varun Goyal, PhD
Postdoctoral Scholar, Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery
BioDr. Varun Goyal is a Postdoctoral Scholar in Otolaryngology at Stanford University, applying his expertise in nonlinear systems, biomechanics, acoustics, and vibrations to advance the understanding of hearing. He earned his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Michigan, where he worked at the intersection of mechanics and biological systems to develop computational frameworks for mechanosensory transduction in mammalian ears, with a particular focus on inner-ear hair bundles.
His background spans structural and fluid dynamics, finite element analysis, and control systems, with a strong emphasis on applying these techniques to problems in ear physiology. Dr. Goyal also conducted research at the Center for Nondestructive Evaluation (CNDE) during his bachelor's and master’s studies at IIT Madras, where he designed multifunctional acoustic waveguides for ultrasonic energy transmission and temperature sensing.
He has led and contributed to high-impact R&D projects across leading academic institutions, including RWTH Aachen University in Germany, Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, and Nagaoka University of Technology in Japan, as well as industry partners such as Mondelez International and Plasma Giken Co., Ltd. in Japan. Driven by curiosity and a commitment to understanding how complex systems operate, Dr. Goyal's work integrates theory, computation, and experiment to address fundamental questions in auditory biomechanics. -
Or Gozani
Dr. Morris Herzstein Professor
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe study the molecular mechanisms by which chromatin-signaling networks effect nuclear and epigenetic programs, and how dysregulation of these pathways leads to disease. Our work centers on the biology of lysine methylation, a principal chromatin-regulatory mechanism that directs epigenetic processes. We study how lysine methylation events are generated, sensed, and transduced, and how these chemical marks integrate with other nuclear signaling systems to govern diverse cellular functions.

Joshua D. Grab, MS, MA
Biostatistician 2, Stanford-Surgery Policy Improvement Research and Education Center
BioJoshua Grab is a Biostatistician at the S-SPIRE Center in the Department of Surgery. He has Masters' degrees in Biostatistics and Mathematics.
Josh has 12 years of experience as a biostatistician and data analyst. As a data analyst at UCSF, he worked primarily for the Liver Transplant Center doing survival analyses. At Wake Forest University, he worked on genome-wide association studies for various disease conditions. Before that, he worked at the Duke Clinical Research Institute (DCRI), building logistic models for mortality within the Society of Thoracic Surgeons' National Cardiac Database.
Josh has been a SAS user for all of his time in biostatistics and has beginner to intermediate skills with various other software packages, including R, STATA, and MATLAB, and is learning Python.
In addition to his biostatistics career, Josh also has 7 years of experience teaching mathematics and introductory statistics at the community college level.
