Jason Andrews
Professor of Medicine (Infectious Diseases) and, by courtesy, of Epidemology
On Partial Leave from 04/01/2026 To 09/30/2026Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur laboratory aims to develop and test innovative approaches to the diagnosis, treatment and control of infectious diseases in resource-limited settings. We draw upon multiple fields including mathematical modeling, microbial genetics, field epidemiology, statistical inference and biodesign to work on challenging problems in infectious diseases, with an emphasis on tuberculosis and tropical diseases.

Caitlin Ang
Casual Employee, Medicine - Med/Gastroenterology and Hepatology
BioCaitlin is a public health researcher with an MSPH from Johns Hopkins University, focused on women’s and reproductive health outcomes, population-level analysis, and equity-driven research. Her work sits at the intersection of data, policy, and real-world impact—using rigorous methods to understand how systems shape health outcomes across the life course.
Caitlin has experience supporting and leading quantitative and mixed-methods research, including data management and analysis, literature reviews, IRB and regulatory processes, and translating findings into reports, briefs, and academic outputs. She is especially interested in research related to maternal morbidity and mortality, reproductive health access, and structural drivers of health inequities. -
Lay Teng Ang
Assistant Professor of Urology
BioAs a stem cell biologist, I aim to understand the mechanisms through which stem cells differentiate into progressively specialized cell types and to harness this knowledge to artificially generate pure populations of desired cell types from stem cells. My work over the past ten years has centered on pluripotent stem cells (PSCs, which include embryonic and pluripotent stem cells), which can generate any of the hundreds of diverse cell types in the body. However, it has been notoriously challenging to guide PSCs to differentiate into a pure population of a given cell type. Current differentiation strategies typically generate heterogeneous cell populations unsuitable for basic research or clinical applications. To address this challenge, I mapped the cascade of branching lineage choices through which PSCs differentiate into various endodermal and mesodermal cell types. I then developed effective methods to differentiate PSCs into specific lineages by providing the extracellular signal(s) that specify a given lineage while inhibiting the signals that induce the alternate fate(s), enabling the generation of highly-pure human heart and bone (Loh & Chen et al., 2016; Cell) and liver (Loh & Ang et al., 2014; Cell Stem Cell) from PSCs. My laboratory currently focuses on differentiating human PSCs into liver progenitors (Ang et al., 2018; Cell Reports) and blood vessel cells (Ang et al., 2022; Cell).
I earned my Ph.D. jointly from the University of Cambridge and A*STAR and was subsequently appointed as a Research Fellow and, later, a Senior Research Fellow at the Genome Institute of Singapore. I then moved my laboratory to Stanford University as a Siebel Investigator and Instructor at the Stanford Institute for Stem Cell Biology & Regenerative Medicine. In 2024, I am jointly appointed in the Stanford Department of Urology and Stem Cell Institute as an Assistant Professor. My laboratory has been supported by the Stanford Maternal & Child Health Research Institute, California Institute for Regenerative Medicine, Siebel Investigatorship, Additional Ventures, and other sources. -
Michael Angeletti
Moving Image Digitization Specialist, Library Technology
Current Role at StanfordI work to reformat and preserve historically important moving image recordings held by the Stanford University Libraries. Our facility is located in Redwood City, California, in the building where the AMPEX corporation did much of its early work on audiotape and videotape recording systems. Aside from the work of reformatting magnetic media, our workgroup at SMPL contributes to the more broad efforts of the AV preservation community through collaboration on special projects and consultation with other archives, universities and research institutions.

Michael Angelo
Associate Professor of Pathology
BioMichael Angelo, MD PhD is a board-certified pathologist and assistant professor in the department of Pathology at Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Angelo is a leader in high dimensional imaging with expertise in tissue homeostasis, tumor immunology, and infectious disease. His lab has pioneered the construction and development of Multiplexed Ion Beam Imaging by time of flight (MIBI-TOF). MIBI-TOF uses secondary ion mass spectrometry and metal-tagged antibodies to achieve rapid, simultaneous imaging of dozens of proteins at subcellular resolution. In recognition of this achievement, Dr. Angelo received the NIH Director’s Early Independence award in 2014. His lab has since used this novel technology to discover previously unknown rule sets governing the spatial organization and cellular composition of immune, stromal, and tumor cells within the tumor microenvironment in triple negative breast cancer. These findings were found to be predictive of single cell expression of several immunotherapy drug targets and of 10-year overall survival. This effort has led to ongoing work aimed at elucidating structural mechanisms in the TME that promote recruitment of cancer associated fibroblasts, tumor associated macrophages, and extracellular matrix remodeling. Dr. Angelo is the recipient of the 2020 DOD Era of Hope Award and a principal investigator on multiple extramural awards from the National Cancer Institute, Breast Cancer Research Foundation, Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and the Human Biomolecular Atlas (HuBMAP) initiative.

Timothy Angelotti MD, PhD
Clinical Associate Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research efforts are focused on investigating the pharmacological and physiological interface of the autonomic nervous system with effector organs. Utilizing molecular, cellular, and electrophysiological techniques, we are examining alpha2 adrenergic receptor function in cultured sympathetic neurons. Future research aims will be directed toward understanding neurotransmitter release in general.

Leni Aniva
Ph.D. Student in Computer Science, admitted Autumn 2022
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy main research interest is Machine-Assisted Theorem Proving, which refers to using machine-learning agents to find proofs of mathematical theorems and conduct reasoning. We are pursuing a hybrid algorithm between neural networks and SMT solvers to solve some of the long standing problems facing machine learning models today such as opaqueness, hallucinations, and information leakage. I also do research on SMT solvers and automatic verifications of programs.
