Mohsen Bayati
Carl and Marilynn Thoma Professor in the Graduate School of Business and Professor, by courtesy, of Electrical Engineering and of Radiation Oncology (Radiation Therapy)
Current Research and Scholarly Interests1) Healthcare management: I am interested in improving healthcare delivery using data-driven modeling and decision-making.
2) Network models and message-passing algorithms: I work on graphical modeling ideas motivated from statistical physics and their applications in statistical inference.
3) Personalized decision-making: I work on machine learning and statistical challenges of personalized decision-making. The problems that I have worked on are primarily motivated by healthcare applications. -
Tina Baykaner
Assistant Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine)
BioTina Baykaner, MD, MPH is an Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine and Cardiac Electrophysiology at Stanford University School of Medicine. She completed residency and fellowships in cardiovascular medicine and advanced heart failure at the University of California, San Diego, followed by fellowship training in cardiac electrophysiology at Stanford. She joined the Stanford faculty in 2018 and was promoted to Assistant Professor in 2023.
Dr. Baykaner’s research program focuses on atrial fibrillation (AF), cardio-oncology, and the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning into cardiac electrophysiology. She is Principal Investigator of an NIH R01 investigating atrial fibrillation in patients with hematologic malignancies treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors and previously led an NIH K23 award focused on personalizing AF management using machine learning. She also serves as co-investigator or consultant on multiple NIH-funded R01 projects in artificial intelligence, ventricular arrhythmias, and digital cardiovascular phenotyping. Her work spans AF mechanisms, ablation outcomes, digital health implementation, and equity in arrhythmia care.
She has authored over 200 peer-reviewed publications, book chapters, and abstracts, including more than 100 original research manuscripts, and has delivered over 100 invited lectures nationally and internationally. She served as a task force member for the 2024 EHRA/HRS/APHRS/LAHRS Expert Consensus Statement on Catheter and Surgical Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation and holds editorial leadership roles, including Associate Editor for the Journal of Interventional Cardiac Electrophysiology and editorial board positions with multiple electrophysiology journals.
Dr. Baykaner is Vice-Chair of the Heart Rhythm Society Digital Education Committee and serves on national program and grant review committees, including NIH/NHLBI study sections. She is actively engaged in mentorship across undergraduate, medical, graduate, and postdoctoral levels, with mentees who have received national awards and progressed to electrophysiology fellowship and faculty positions.
Her clinical practice focuses on catheter ablation of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias, supraventricular tachycardias, management of inappropriate sinus tachycardia, cardiac implantable electronic device implantation and extraction, and advanced rhythm management strategies in complex patient populations. -
Shania Danielle Bayley
Postdoctoral Scholar, Psychiatry
BioDr. Shania Bayley is a Postdoctoral Scholar on the Autism Spectrum Disorders track at Stanford University School of Medicine, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences. She earned her Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) in Clinical Psychology from Loyola University Maryland, where her training was specialized in child and adolescent psychology with a strong emphasis on neurodevelopmental disorders, trauma-informed care, and early relational health.
She completed her predoctoral internship at WestCoast Children’s Clinic in Oakland, California. Her clinical interests include diagnostic assessment of autism spectrum disorder, parent-child relational dynamics, and attachment-based interventions in marginalized communities. She has received training in psychodiagnostic testing and has experience providing therapy to children, adolescents, and families across school, community, and hospital settings. -
Farah Bazzi
Ph.D. Student in History, admitted Autumn 2018
BioFarah Bazzi was born in Lebanon and raised in The Netherlands. She is currently a Ph.D. candidate in early modern global history at Stanford University. Farah’s work attempts to bridge both Mediterranean and Atlantic history by focusing on how objects, people, and imaginations moved between the Ottoman world, Morocco, Iberia, and the Americas during the sixteenth and seventeenth century. Furthermore, Farah’s research interests include environmental thought, race, indigeneity, cosmology, cartography, and technologies of conquest. In her dissertation, Farah looks at the expulsion of the moriscos and their presence in the Americas, Morocco, and the Ottoman Empire from a socio-environmental perspective. In addition to this, Farah is interested the construction of Al-Andalus as an aesthetically appealing, pursuable, and transplantable natural and racialized landscape in Spanish, Arabic, and Ottoman sources.
Currently, Farah is one of the project founders and managers of the ‘Life in Quarantine: Witnessing Global Pandemic’ project sponsored by CESTA, the History Department, and the Division of Languages and Cultures. She is also the graduate coordinator for the Center for Medieval and Early Modern Studies (CMEMS) at Stanford and the Graduate Student Counselor (director) on the board of the Renaissance Society of America (RSA). -
David Beach
Professor (Teaching) of Mechanical Engineering, Emeritus
BioBeach teaches courses in the areas of design and manufacturing. Beach and Craig Milroy co-direct the Product Realization Laboratory which provides 1700 students annually with hands on experiences in product definition, conceptual design, detail design, and prototype creation. The PRL offers courses, mentors and tools in support of integrated designing and making. Pedagogically, Beach believes that creation of experience from which students (and teams of students) can interpret and internalize their own conclusions provides an excellent complement to content based teaching. His goal is to add strength in tacit knowledge which derives from the hands-on synthesis of design, prototype building, presentation and criticism.. The resulting judgment and instinct regarding materials, devices, materials transformation processes, and design process complement classical analytical engineering education to create superior engineers.
