Bruce T. Adornato
Adjunct Clinical Professor, Adult Neurology
BioDr. Adornato joined the Department of Neurology as Voluntary Clinical Faculty in 1978, (subsequently Adjunct Clinical Faculty) and has served as Director of the Neuromuscular Laboratory from 1978 until 1983, performing and interpreting nerve and muscle biopsies as well as serving as attending physician directing residents and medical students in the diagnosis and care of his private patients admitted to Stanford Hospital. Since 1986, he has been attending physician at the Palo Alto VA Hospital, directing Stanford Neurology residents and medical students in the care of veterans. He has published 69 peer reviewed papers and a number of book chapters in the field of neurology. He is currently the medical officer of a silicon valley startup exploring mobility devices for the neurologically impaired.

Gregory W. Albers, MD
Coyote Foundation Professor and Professor, by courtesy, of Neurosurgery
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur groupÂ’'s research focus is the acute treatment and prevention of cerebrovascular disorders. Our primary interest is the use of advanced imaging techniques to expand the treatment window for ischemic stroke. We are also conducting clinical studies of both neuroprotective and thrombolytic strategies for the treatment of acute stroke and investigating new antithrombotic strategies for stroke prevention.

Katrin Andreasson
Edward F. and Irene Thiele Pimley Professor of Neurology and Neurological Sciences
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur research focuses on understanding how immune responses initiate and accelerate synaptic and neuronal injury in age-related neurodegeneration, including models of Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. We also focus on the role of immune responses in aggravating brain injury in models of stroke. Our goal is the identification of critical immune pathways that function in neurologic disorders and that can be targeted to elicit disease modifying effects.

Peter Arsanyous
Affiliate, Adult Neurology
Visiting Postdoctoral Scholar, Adult NeurologyBioPeter Arsanyous is a Visiting Postdoctoral Research Scholar in the Department of Neurology at Stanford University. He is an ECFMG-certified physician with prior clinical experience in neurology and a strong interest in stroke mechanisms, neuroimaging, and outcomes research.
His current work centers on stroke-related clinical research, including imaging-based evaluation, acute stroke workflows, and secondary prevention. He is particularly interested in the integration of advanced neuroimaging and clinical decision-making in ischemic stroke care.
Dr. Arsanyous earned his medical degree from Misr University for Science and Technology (MUST) in Egypt. He has clinical training in neurology and internal medicine and maintains a strong interest in cerebrovascular diseases and the neurobiology of epilepsy.
His research interests align with Stanford’s acute stroke and reperfusion research, particularly the use of advanced neuroimaging to guide treatment decisions, optimize patient selection, and improve functional outcomes in ischemic stroke. He is motivated to contribute to clinical research initiatives and multicenter studies in stroke neurology.
