Sasa Caval
Administrative Assistant, Contingent
Staff,BioDr Saša Čaval is an archaeologist whose research explores how landscapes, memory, and material culture shape communities across time. She leads the ERC project STONE, examining the origins and meanings of the medieval stećci tombstones of the Western Balkans. Her work integrates archaeology, geoarchaeology, and digital heritage technologies to study long-term human–environment relationships.
At Stanford, Dr Čaval is affiliated with the Stanford Archaeology Center and the Institute for Research in Social Sciences. She also works with the Mauritian Archaeology and Cultural Heritage project group, connecting archaeology with post-colonial histories and community-based conservation. She also contributes to GeoAI, Slovenia’s national research programme applying artificial intelligence to cultural-heritage risk modelling.
A Marie Skłodowska-Curie alumna (University of Reading, UK) and active member of the Marie Curie Alumni Association (Coordinator for the West Coast), she promotes inclusive, ethically grounded research that links local communities, digital innovation, and global heritage stewardship. -
Katie Cederberg
Postdoctoral Scholar, Psychiatry
BioDr. Cederberg is a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University in the Mignot Lab, where she devotes her time to conducting research leveraging large datasets and machine learning approaches aimed at better understanding the relationship among genetics, proteomics and the presence and severity of symptoms related to sleep disorders. Her research further focuses on studying the effectiveness of exercise for managing symptoms of sleep disorders, primarily restless legs syndrome (RLS) and co-occurring conditions (e.g., periodic limb movements and insomnia). Her current research explores patients’ experiences with exercise and RLS, as well as the relationship between exercise and proteomic biomarkers of RLS. She received her PhD in Rehabilitation Science from the University of Alabama at Birmingham, and her dissertation used a series of methodological approaches to comprehensively examine the relationship between physical activity and RLS in adults who have multiple sclerosis. She is using her experience and training to develop a line of research for identifying the mechanism of action for the effect of exercise and informing exercise prescription parameters for managing symptoms of RLS.

Omar I Ceesay
Graduate, Medicine, School of Medicine
BioOmar was born in Banjulinding, The Gambia and moved to the United States to play soccer at Western Nebraska Community College (WNCC). He then transferred to the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC), where he completed a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. He worked as an Emergency Department (ED) and Neuro-rehab nurse for three years, and subsequently enrolled into the UNMC College of Medicine. He is part of the 2027 graduation class.
Omar's interest in neurosurgery predates medical school. He is particularly interested in Global Neurosurgery and Neurotrauma. He has an ongoing research on ways to optimize neurosurgical care in underserved areas of the world. His time at Stanford will be spent on tumor and functional EEG research, under the tutelage of Dr. Melanie Hayden-Gephart and Dr. Ashwin Ramayya, respectively. In his free time, Omar enjoys playing soccer and board games. -
Lynette Cegelski
Monroe E. Spaght Professor of Chemistry and Professor, by courtesy, of Chemical Engineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur laboratory uncovers the chemical principles that organize living systems. Across biology - from microbial communities to human disease - chemical and macromolecular composition, molecular interactions, and chemical modifications govern the assembly, function, and persistence of complex biological systems, yet many of these principles remain hidden from conventional approaches. We develop innovative chemical, structural, and biological strategies to preserve and interrogate intact biological systems, revealing chemistry that cannot be observed by studying isolated components alone. Our work has uncovered previously unknown molecular structures, chemical modifications, and mechanisms of biological organization, including the discovery of phosphoethanolamine (pEtN) cellulose, a chemically modified form of cellulose that fundamentally changed our understanding of bacterial extracellular matrices.
In parallel, we discover and engineer molecules that probe, disrupt, and control biological systems. A major focus is the development of new strategies to combat antibiotic resistance and persistent bacterial communities. Our laboratory has introduced first-in-class vancomycin conjugates with multiple modes of action, unusually broad-spectrum activity, and the ability to sterilize biofilms - properties not observed together in other vancomycin conjugates. We also develop anti-biofilm agents, molecular probes, imaging agents, and other chemical tools that both reveal new biology and provide starting points for addressing pressing challenges in human health and disease.
Together, our research spans fundamental chemical discovery and molecular invention: uncovering the chemistry that enables biological systems to assemble and persist, and using those insights to create new ways to interrogate and control them. This work opens opportunities to combat infectious disease, improve human health, preserve marine ecosystems, advance sustainable materials, and deepen our understanding of how chemistry organizes life. -
Natally Celaya-Martinez
Affiliate, Medicine - Primary Care and Population Health
BioMy name is Natally Celaya-Martinez, and I am from the Skagit Valley area in Washington State. I graduated from the University of Washington, Seattle with a B.S. in Biology (Physiology), where I learned a lot about navigating new spaces and learning a lot of wholesome lessons along the way ~
My interest in healthcare was shaped by watching my family navigate care through language barriers and moments of misunderstanding, revealing how easily patients can be left unheard. But growing up in a small community, I came to see how crucial it is to reduce healthcare disparities, which strengthened my commitment to serve underrepresented populations.
I am honored to be part of the Stanford Healthcare team and look forward to learning from peers and physicians who are committed to patient centered care. I hope to carry these experiences forward in my journey to medicine and give back to future generations! -
Bettia Edith Celestin
Postdoctoral Scholar, Pathology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research focuses on advanced echocardiographic imaging of the right heart and pulmonary circulation, with a strong emphasis on integrating artificial intelligence and deep learning into clinical cardiology. I led cardiovascular phenotyping for NIH-funded immune aging cohort and am developing a research program in women's cardiovascular health, including sex-specific imaging phenotypes and the cardiovascular consequences of adverse pregnancy outcomes across the menopausal transition.
