Sathya Narayanan Jagadeesan
Postdoctoral Scholar, Photon Science, SLAC
BioSathya Narayanan Jagadeesan is a postdoctoral scholar at the SLAC-Stanford Battery Center, with joint appointments in the Applied Energy Division at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Stanford University. He earned his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from Worcester Polytechnic Institute. His research focuses on earth-abundant and non-critical battery chemistries, including aqueous iron, sodium-sulfur, and sodium-ion systems, using advanced synchrotron X-ray characterization and data-driven approaches to understand interfacial chemistry and degradation mechanisms. His work aims to advance scalable and resilient energy storage technologies that reduce reliance on critical materials and strengthen the reliability of modern electric grids. He is driven by translating fundamental insights into practical solutions that support long-duration and widely deployable energy storage.

Prasanna Jagannathan
Associate Professor of Medicine (Infectious Diseases) and of Microbiology and Immunology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe study innate immunity and immune regulation of Plasmodium Falciparum malaria in children and pregnant women. Our work focuses on understanding how malaria shapes the immune state in individuals following repeated exposure. We are also testing novel interventions to enhance protective immunity against malaria in children via large, randomized controlled trials. Our work in malaria has been based in Eastern Uganda, where malaria transmission is among the highest in the world.

Abhi Jain
Clinical Assistant Professor, Radiology
BioDr. Jain is a neuroradiologist and a Certified Imaging Informatics Professional (CIIP) whose academic work bridges day-to-day neuroradiology practice with imaging informatics and clinically grounded artificial intelligence (AI).
His clinical research interests include quantitative imaging and radiomics in cerebrovascular disease, with particular emphasis on intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and imaging biomarkers in the aging brain and neurodegeneration, including limbic-predominant age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy (LATE).
His AI/informatics and quality-improvement interests include large language models (LLMs) for radiology reporting support and clinical decision support, with an emphasis on real-world evaluation and workflow integration.
His education interests focus on modern, technology-enabled neuroradiology teaching, including tailored language models and extended reality (XR; augmented/virtual/mixed reality) approaches to strengthen trainee learning. -
Bhav Jain
MD Student with Scholarly Concentration in Health Services & Policy Research / Surgery, expected graduation Spring 2028
MBA, expected graduation 2028BioBhav Jain is pursuing an MD at the Stanford School of Medicine as a Knight-Hennessy Scholar, Harry S. Truman Scholar, and Samvid Scholar. He graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) with a bachelor’s degree in computer science and brain and cognitive sciences. At MIT, he was a Legatum Fellow and received the 40 Under 40 in Cancer Award.
His research on healthcare delivery, social determinants of health, and value-based care has been published in outlets such as Nature Medicine, The Lancet Digital Health, JAMA Oncology, Journal of the National Cancer Institute, American Journal of Public Health, Cancer, Journal of the American College of Surgeons, Journal of General Internal Medicine, and American Journal of Managed Care. While at MIT, he launched The Connected Foundation, which forges intergenerational connections between youth and seniors, and Compass, an SMS platform that streamlines patient intake and scheduling. Most recently, he served as a Fellow at the Boston Public Health Commission to implement interventions aimed at curbing substance abuse and homelessness. As a physician-policymaker, Bhav aspires to create high-value, evidence-based healthcare systems that transform clinical care globally. In particular, he seeks to innovate at both public- and private-sector organizations during his career to improve the quality of and lower the cost of patient care. -
Rishee Jain
Associate Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioProfessor Jain's research focuses on the development of data-driven and socio-technical solutions to sustainability problems facing the urban built environment. His work lies at the intersection of civil engineering, data analytics and social science. Recently, his research has focused on understanding the socio-spatial dynamics of commercial building energy usage, conducting data-driven benchmarking and sustainability planning of urban buildings and characterizing the coupled dynamics of urban systems using data science and micro-experimentation. For more information, see the active projects on his lab (Stanford Urban Informatics Lab) website.
