Arielle Woloshin Tolman
Thomas C. Grey Fellow and Lecturer in Law
BioAri’s research interests center on the intersection of criminal law, health law, and constitutional law. Her current project uses mixed empirical methods — analyzing administrative data, interviews, and ethnographic observations — to examine the national scope and consequences of the criminal prosecution of incarcerated people with mental illness for their behavior inside prison. This project received support from the American Bar Foundation, the Horowitz Foundation for Social Policy, and the Kellogg Dispute Resolution Research Center. Ari’s previous scholarship has been published in a broad range of journals including Law and Society Review, Law and Social Inquiry, Northwestern University Law Review, Lancet, and Schizophrenia Bulletin.
Prior to joining Stanford Law, Ari clerked for Judge William A. Fletcher on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and for Justice Goodwin Liu on the Supreme Court of California. She also worked as an associate attorney at Rosen Bien Galvan & Grunfeld LLP in San Francisco, where she represented two classes of incarcerated people in federal court.
Ari graduated summa cum laude from Northwestern University Pritzker School of Law with a JD/PhD in Sociology. She received the John Paul Stevens Prize for highest GPA of graduating law students. While a law student, she served as Editor-in-Chief of the Northwestern University Law Review and worked in the Children and Family Justice Center clinic. Ari received her BA with High Honors in Sociology and High Honors in Neuroscience and Behavior from Wesleyan University. -

Antonio Tomasso
Postdoctoral Scholar, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
BioAntonio Tomasso is an NWO Rubicon Postdoctoral Scholar. As part of his MSc in Medical Molecular and Cellular Biotechnology at Vita-Salute San Raffaele University, he explored the immunomodulatory and neurotrophic roles of neural stem cells (NSCs) following spinal cord injury. As a Research Assistant at Karolinska Institute, he delved into the signaling pathways required for NSC activation and migration after spinal cord injury, and the limited regenerative abilities of mouse and human heart.
During his PhD, he investigated the molecular mechanisms of tissue regeneration in planarians, axolotls and spiny mice. He conducted research as a Visiting Fellow at the University of Kentucky and the Hubrecht Institute.
His research demonstrated that MAPK/ERK signaling acts as a molecular switch between regeneration and fibrosis in adult mammals and can be activated to stimulate a regenerative response, including new hair follicle formation, in scarring wounds.
He contributed to a pioneering study showing that spiny mice can recover heart function after infarct through enhanced angiogenesis, ECM remodeling and epicardium regeneration. He also played a key role in spatial transcriptomic studies that defined regenerative and fibrotic gene signatures in spiny mice, laboratory mice and gerbils.
He earned a PhD cum laude in Molecular and Cellular Life Sciences at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Biomedicine.
He has been awarded an NWO Dutch Research Council Rubicon Postdoctoral grant to conduct research on the molecular drivers of fibroblast activation in wound healing and organ fibrosis.
His ultimate research aim is to crack the code of tissue regeneration and rejuvenation, reversing organ scarring and preventing fibrosis in injuries and pathological conditions, through the identification of therapeutic targets for enhanced tissue repair and functional recovery.
Driven by his innate curiosity and passion for science, he loves tackling new challenges, thinking outside the box, and building interdisciplinary collaborations to push forward the boundaries of knowledge.
His career goal is to serve as a group leader, fostering a collaborative environment where everyone can thrive, achieve their goals and leave a lasting impact through community-building and scientific discoveries for the benefit of humankind.
