Brandon earned a BS in Human Biology from Stanford and an MSc in Bioinformatics and Theoretical Systems Biology from Imperial College London as a Fulbright Scholar. Prior to medical school, he also received the NIH Cancer Research Training Award to pursue a yearlong research fellowship at the NIH Neuro-Oncology Branch. He received his MD from the Stanford University School of Medicine as a Knight-Hennessy Scholar, and conducted research under the mentorship of Dr. Michael Lim and Dr. Christina Jackson, using multi-omic technologies to characterize the brain tumor microenvironment, elucidate predictors of response to immunotherapy, and identify novel immunotherapeutic targets. Brandon’s work has been published in several high-impact journals including Science, Immunity, Cancer Immunology Research, Oncoimmunology, Journal of Neuro-Oncology, Neuro-Oncology Advances, and Bioinformatics. Prior to pursuing medicine, Brandon used to work as a surf instructor, and in his free time he enjoys going surfing and sharing his love for the sport with others.

Mike Berkebile-Weinberg
Postdoctoral Scholar, Environmental Social Sciences
BioMike is a postdoctoral scholar in the Climate Cognition Lab in Stanford University's Doerr School of Sustainability. His program of research examines how individual-level cognition scales up to shape collective phenomena. He studies how social bias propagates through organizations, and how people and institutions understand and respond to climate change. His research uses experiments and computational methods to tackle big social challenges like economic inequality and climate change inaction, and has been published in leading journals such as Nature Communications, Science Advances, Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, and others.
