Felix Horns
Assistant Professor of Genetics
BioFelix Horns is an Assistant Professor of Genetics at Stanford University and a Core Investigator at Arc Institute. The Horns group works at the interface of synthetic biology and genomics to develop and apply technologies for monitoring and manipulating cells, with particular focus on the immune system and the brain.
Felix earned his B.A. in Biology from Amherst College and his Ph.D. in Biophysics working with Dr. Stephen Quake at Stanford, where he developed and used single-cell genomics, high-throughput sequencing, and computational analysis approaches to understand the origins of human antibody diversity and to discover principles of how brain circuits assemble during development. He then joined Dr. Michael Elowitz's lab at the California Institute of Technology where he combined synthetic biology and genomics approaches to develop RNA packaging, secretion, and delivery systems, which open new avenues for understanding and controlling cellular behaviors. -
Audra Horomanski
Clinical Associate Professor, Medicine - Immunology & Rheumatology
BioDr. Horomanski specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of rheumatologic diseases. She received her undergraduate degree from Case Western Reserve University, medical degree from Wright State University, and completed her Internal Medicine residency and Rheumatology fellowship at Stanford University. She is the Director of the Stanford Vasculitis Clinic where she manages the complex care of patients with all types of vasculitis and works closely with partners in related specialties. She has a specific interest in clinical trials and a Graduate Certificate in Epidemiology and Clinical Research. Dr. Horomanski also received training in musculoskeletal ultrasound from the USSONAR program and is an integral part of Stanford's Diagnostic and Interventional Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Clinic. Additional areas of research include the application of ultrasound in the study and management of rheumatologic diseases.

Kimberly Horstman
Clinical Associate Professor, Pediatrics
BioI came late to medicine, entering medical school after a career editing children's educational books. After graduating from USC Keck School of Medicine and completing my residency at Children's Hospital Los Angeles, I worked briefly in the outpatient setting, and then started my career as a Pediatric Hospitalist in 2006. Since 2016, I have functioned primarily as a Neonatal Hospitalist at John Muir Medical Center in Walnut Creek, CA, taking care of well newborns and Level 2 and 3 NICU patients, as well as attending deliveries and performing newborn procedures.

Felix Janos Horvath
Graduate, Medicine, Radiology
BioI'm an Austrian medical student at Heidelberg University and, since March 2026, a Visiting Student Researcher. I work in the Department of Radiology at Stanford, where Prof. Heike Daldrup-Link supervises my doctoral work.
We develop AI methods for pediatric whole-body PET/MRI. Segmentation models are trained almost entirely on adult scans, and children are not small adults, so anatomy that changes with age is where those models fail. We are also assembling a public pediatric PET/MRI dataset so other groups can test their methods. Pediatric medicine runs on a fraction of the evidence adult medicine has, because the cohorts are small and the studies are hard to run. That is the gap I want to work in, not least because the impact you can have here lasts a lifetime.
My background is a technical one. At school in Graz I spent my free time building robots with a team that made it to the RoboCup World Championship in Sydney, and my thesis was on CRISPR/Cas9 as a tool against malaria. Both halves were there early. I went into medicine rather than engineering because I wanted work that happens between people and not only in front of a screen. Since starting med school, I finished the first written part of the German licensing examination in the top 1% nationwide.
Outside the lab I spend most of my time playing sports. I started tennis when I was very young and later switched to volleyball. Recently I picked up triathlon and finished my first Ironman at the European Championships.
