Mani Ardalan Farhadi
Facilities Senior Planner, School of Medicine - Office of Facilities Planning & Management
Current Role at StanfordAs Senior Facilities Planner in the OFPM (Office of Facilities, Planning and Management) for the SoM (School of Medicine), I collaborate with Dept. Chairs, Faculty, Researchers, Staff and Facilities to optimize layouts for appx. 2M square feet of space as adjustments are needed to offices, labs, and teaching spaces across the campuses of Stanford University. I work with consultants, designers, project managers, furniture vendors, movers and others to determine the optimal solutions. After 30+ years of being in architectural firms working with educational institutions, I'm thrilled to be inside that setting and contributing to the success of the School of Medicine.

Charbel Farhat
Vivian Church Hoff Professor of Aircraft Structures and Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics
On Partial Leave from 04/01/2026 To 06/30/2026Current Research and Scholarly InterestsCharbel Farhat and his Research Group (FRG) develop mathematical models, advanced computational algorithms, and high-performance software for the design, analysis, and digital twinning of complex systems in aerospace, marine, mechanical, and naval engineering. They contribute major advances to Simulation-Based Engineering Science. Current engineering foci in research are on reliable autonomous carrier landing in rough seas; dissipation of vertical landing energies through structural flexibility; nonlinear aeroelasticity of N+3 aircraft with High Aspect Ratio (HAR) wings; pulsation and flutter of a parachute; pendulum motion in main parachute clusters; coupled fluid-structure interaction (FSI) in supersonic inflatable aerodynamic decelerators for Mars landing; flight dynamics of hypersonic systems and their trajectories; and advanced digital twinning. Current theoretical and computational emphases in research are on high-performance, multi-scale modeling for the high-fidelity analysis of multi-component, multi-physics problems; discrete-event-free embedded boundary methods for CFD and FSI; efficient Bayesian optimization using physics-based surrogate models; modeling and quantifying model-form uncertainty; probabilistic, physics-based machine learning; mechanics-informed artificial neural networks for data-driven constitutive modeling; and efficient nonlinear projection-based model order reduction for time-critical applications such as design, active control, and digital twinning.

Diana Farid
Clinical Associate Professor, Medicine - Vaden Health Center
BioDiana Farid MD, MPH is a physician, filmmaker, an award-winning author and poet. She is a Clinical Associate Professor in the Department of Medicine and Faculty in the Medical Humanities and Arts Program at Stanford's School of Medicine. After earning a BA in Peace and Conflict Studies at UC Berkeley, MD at Northwestern University, and Family Medicine specialty training at UCLA, she was awarded a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Child and Family Health Leadership Fellowship, during which she earned a Masters in Public Health focused on community health and storytelling.
Since then, Diana has continued to care for patients while creating and championing the vital role of story and the arts in medicine and health. After serving as a physician consultant for television shows like Grey's Anatomy, she produced the feature length documentary film, American Rhythms, exploring the positive impact of music on elementary school student health. At Stanford, she has integrated medicine and the mediums of film, creative writing, and poetry into student and community experiences while leading and presenting arts programs across Stanford. As Assistant Director of Stanford School of Medicine’s Program in Bioethics and Film, she produced film screenings and panel discussions exploring films with vital bioethical implications. She established the first Stanford Film and Medicine Interest group for medical students to study film as a health promotion tool and has mentored medical student film projects. She produced the Stanford Medicine and the Muse, Medical Humanities and the Arts' 2018 Frankenstein@200 year-long cross-campus film screening and panel series.
Her poetry has been featured in gallery exhibits, storytelling events, anthologies, and journals. Her multi-award-winning picture book, When You Breathe (Abrams), melds respiratory science with poetry. Her novel written in verse, Wave (Abrams), celebrating medicine, music and poetry and noted as “Raw and powerful…Rich, layered and heart-rending” — Kirkus, has won numerous awards including the Cybils Award for Novel in Verse, was named a Best Middle Grade Book of 2022 by the School Library Journal, and is on state education board reading lists across the United States. Her latest picture book, The Light of Home (Scholastic) is a lyrical story about painting and belonging. Her debut board book Already All the Love (Little Bee Books) is a poem for presence. She is an Editorial Board Member for poetry for the medical humanities journal, The Pharos. In 2025, she created a first-of-its-kind Women in Medicine participatory poem for the Stanford School of Medicine. In 2026, she is co-teaching Peds 129: Little Libraries: Improving Children’s Literacy through Service and Storytelling. For 2025-2026, she is one of the inaugural artsCatalyst Fellows of the Stanford Arts Institute. -
Charles J. Faselis
Professor of Medicine (Hospital Medicine)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research interests focus on the use of large clinical datasets to better understand factors associated with health and disease. Current work includes studies of cardiorespiratory fitness, aging, chronic disease, healthcare access, appointment adherence and their relationship to health outcomes, and the application of artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve clinical outcomes and healthcare delivery, particularly among Veterans.

Humera Fasihuddin
d.school Systems Architect, d.school
BioHumera co-directs the University Innovation Fellows Program. She trains students to create lasting institutional impact that enhances the innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem on campus.
Prior to the University Innovation Fellows program, she worked for nonprofit VentureWell and led the creation of numerous programs including the organization’s first foray in advanced venture training workshops, which today account for over half of the 501c(3)’s income. Before that, she created innovation networks between industry and the University of Massachusetts Amherst under an NSF Partnership for Innovation grant.
Humera began her career at the publicly-traded UK firm Rexam, serving as product manager in their precision coated materials subsidiary. Humera holds an M.B.A. from UMass Amherst and a B.S. from Smith College. -
