Antonio J. Pagán
Assistant Professor of Microbiology and Immunology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe Pagán lab is interested in the regulation of immunity and pathogenesis in tuberculosis (TB). TB is characterized by the formation of multicellular aggregates of immune cells called granulomas. We leverage the powerful genetics and imaging capabilities of genetically diverse fish models of TB, which capture key features of human TB granulomas, to address fundamental questions in mycobacterial pathogenesis and granuloma immunobiology.

Matthew Palmer
COLLEGE Lecturer
BioMatthew Palmer (he/him/his) is a Lecturer in Civic, Liberal, and Global Education (COLLEGE).
Fluent in Modern Standard Chinese ("Mandarin") and Japanese, Matthew focuses his research at the intersection of corpus linguistics and computer-assisted language learning. His recent doctoral dissertation reveals previously-unattested language learner comprehension gaps pertaining to the perfective 了 "le": a ubiquitous yet frequently misunderstood Chinese grammatical marker. During his time as a Ph.D. candidate in Stanford's Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures, Matthew taught Chinese linguistics and advanced Chinese language courses.
Matthew holds professional experience in East Asia product localization, automated language assessment, and pedagogical inclusivity training. He is a recipient of the U.S. Department of State Critical Language Scholarship (CLS), the U.S. Department of Education Fulbright-Hays Scholarship, the U.S. Department of Education Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) Graduate Fellowship, and the Stanford University Pigott Scholars Award.
In his spare time, Matthew is passionate about mindfulness, video games, and group fitness. -
Michael Edward Palmer
Affiliate, Biology
Visiting Scholar, BiologyBioI'm visiting the Marc Feldman Lab while writing my book, "Clade Thinking: The Macroevolution of Recursive Clades and the Evolution of Evolvability". The motivating question of the book is, "Can macroevolution be reduced to merely the repeated iteration of microevolution?" (Answer: no, you would be missing a lot.)
I'm also doing some machine learning (ML) applied to genomics with the Fraser Lab, related to the evolution of cis-regulatory elements (CREs), which are involved in a lot of recent/rapid evolution in, say, mammals. We are doing what we call "in silico genome transplants": placing DNA variants from one species into the (ML-modeled) cellular environment of another species (or cell type, or individual with some pathology, etc.). We analyze changes in gene expression to detect various modes of selection on CREs.
I got my B.S. in Physics at Yale, and my Ph.D. in Computer Science at the California Institute of Technology. I've gone back and forth between academia (computational biology) and the tech industry in Silicon Valley. -
Theo Palmer
Professor of Neurosurgery, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMembers of the Palmer Lab study the biology of neural stem cells in brain development and in the adult. Our primary goal is to understand how genes and environment synergize in influencing stem cell behavior during development and how mild genetic or environmental risk factors for disease may synergize in their detrimental effects on brain development or in the risk of neuronal loss in age-related degenerative disease.
