Charles Gawad
Associate Professor of Pediatrics (Hematology/Oncology)
BioOur lab works at the interface of biotechnology, computational biology, cellular biology, and clinical medicine to develop and apply new tools for characterizing genetic variation across single cells within a tissue with unparalleled sensitivity and accuracy. We are focused on applying these technologies to study cancer clonal evolution while patients are undergoing treatment with the aim of identifying cancer clonotypes that are associated with resistance to specific drugs so as to better understand and predict treatment response. We are also applying these methods to understand how more virulent pathogens emerge from a population of bacteria or viruses with an emphasis on developing a deeper understanding of how antibiotic resistance develops.

Kristopher Geda (he/him)
Advanced Lecturer, Language Ctr
BioI am the coordinator of English for Speakers of Other Languages in the Stanford Language Center. Additionally, I teach courses in academic writing, speaking, and listening to graduate students. I also teach a pedagogy and practicum class in the Division of Literatures, Cultures, and Languages for both undergraduate and graduate students who want to explore English language teaching in the future. My main areas of interest are writing, grammar, and extra-curricular communicative skills such as developing the cultural literacy to successfully write professional documents like cover letters, CVs, and resumes, as well as interact socially in professional and personal environments. I speak Spanish and French well, and a little bit of Mandarin and Esperanto.

Melina Gehring
Project Mgr 2 - General, Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S)
Current Role at StanfordAs Research Safety Excellence Lead at Stanford Environmental Health & Safety (EH&S), Melina provides high-profile project management, organizational development, and performance improvement for significant Research Safety undertakings that promote health, safety, and well-being among Stanford’s community of 10,000+ researchers. Her projects focus on Research Safety operational improvement (e.g., metrics development, service design); cross-departmental initiatives (e.g., reports and communications for research leadership, stakeholder events); and multi-year strategic initiatives (e.g., training needs assessment, standards development, knowledge management). Her role harnesses the energies and talents of a wide cross-section of the research community, including principal investigators (PIs), student researchers and post-doctoral fellows, visiting scientists, scientific staff, building and district managers, and university administrators. Melina strives to position both EH&S and Stanford researchers for success in the coming era of research innovation, interdisciplinary complexity, and cutting-edge research methods and technologies.
As a Public Health Project Manager at Environmental Health & Safety, Melina supported the University’s endemic response across the main campus, Redwood City campus, and SLAC. She also served as a facilitator for the Public Health Steering Committee (PHSC), which is charged with the strategic oversight of emerging and endemic public health concerns for the University.
As a member of the Client Services team at University Human Resources (UHR), Melina supported Stanford's Flexible Work effort as the university identifies best practices to support on-site, hybrid, and remote work. She has served as the project manager of the Work Arrangement functionality in Axess and contributed to the university's COVID Compliance effort. She also led a process improvement project focusing on the Stanford Celebrates You program and helped design a strategy for future DEI-based employee recognition efforts at Stanford.
At the Stanford University Office of Emergency Management (OEM), Melina and her colleagues worked toward the vision of a disaster-resilient university. Since March 2020, Melina has supported the Stanford Emergency Operations Center's (EOC) strategic response to COVID-19 and has carried this commitment into her position at UHR as well as her current position back with EH&S.
Prior to this role with Environmental Health & Safety, Melina worked at Stanford's Office of International Affairs (OIA), where she helped develop strategy and communications infrastructure to support Stanford faculty, staff, and students with their global research and education initiatives. At OIA, Melina also managed the start-up phase of Stanford's new research center in Korea (SCIGC).
Melina is a Project Management Professional (PMP), a Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) and helped revive and grow the Community of Practice "Agile Stanford," which promotes Agile project management across campus.
Before coming to Stanford, Melina worked as an educational consultant in London (UK), supported international graduate students at Dartmouth College, and served as a desk officer at Germany's Federal Foreign Office in Berlin.
Melina holds a Ph.D. in American Studies (University of Hamburg) and an M.Phil. in International Relations (University of Cambridge). She has published two books as well as several peer-reviewed articles in two different academic disciplines (American Studies and Musicology).
Outside of work, Melina volunteers as a board member of the Palo Alto Family YMCA with a focus on youth development programs. -
Benedikt Geier
Postdoctoral Scholar, Infectious Diseases
BioB.Sc. Biology, Ludwig Maximilian University (LMU), Munich/Germany (2013)
M.Sc. Biology and bioimaging, Ludwig Maximilian University (LMU), Munich/Germany (2015)
Ph.D., Animal-Microbe Symbioses, Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology in Bremen/Germany (2020)
Benedikt joined the Amieva Lab from Germany in 2022. During his B.Sc. and M.Sc. programs in zoology, he became fascinated with 3D imaging approaches to study small animal microanatomy. He spent his PhD developing in situ imaging approaches to study deep-sea symbioses and fell in love with studying host-microbe interactions. In the Amieva Lab, Benedikt will advance his previously developed correlative chemical imaging techniques to resolve metabolic and cellular interactions that drive H. pylori pathogenesis in the gastric glands.
