Israel Juarez Contreras
Postdoctoral Scholar, Biochemistry
BioI am a postdoctoral scholar in the lab of Rajat Rohatgi at Stanford University, where I study how membrane organization controls sterol accessibility and signaling. I earned my Ph.D. at UC San Diego with Itay Budin, where I uncovered how sterol structure and sphingolipid composition regulate membrane phase behavior in yeast and reconstituted systems. My current work translates these biophysical principles into disease-relevant contexts, with a focus on lysosomal lipid organization and sterol trafficking defects, including those associated with NPC1. Ultimately, I aim to establish an independent research program that defines how cells interpret membrane physical properties and how their dysregulation contributes to human disease.

Maria Juarez-Reyes
Clinical Associate Professor, Medicine - Primary Care and Population Health
BioDr. Juarez-Reyes received her PhD in Health Psychology, MD and Internal Medicine residency training from the University of California at San Francisco. Her focus during medical training was in Behavioral Medicine. In 2010, she became board certified in Integrative Medicine through American Board of Integrative Holistic Medicine. She is currently a Clinical
Associate Professor in the Division of Primary Care and Population Health, Department of Medicine, Stanford University. She is currently the Director of Behavioral Health Group Medical Visits and serves as Site Director for Internal Medicine Residency program at Stanford. She developed “Beyond Stress”, a six-week group intervention for patients with stress, anxiety, and depression. This intervention has now been translated into Spanish, Mas Alla del Estres, and it is delivered to community based Spanish speaking cancer patients.
Her current research evaluates integrative behavioral health group medical visits and the relationship to anxiety, depression, burnout, and sleep in primary care and Spanish speaking community-based populations. Previous health disparities research includes tobacco cessation practices of community-based providers, breast cancer screening follow-up in Latinx women, Latinx adolescent reproductive behavior, medication eligibility criteria effects in ethnic subgroups, and TB treatment in urban county jails. She enjoys travel, walking with friends, anything science fiction and spending time with her family. -

Maximilian Julve
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Oncology
BioDr. Max Julve is a medical oncologist and Clinical Assistant Professor of Medicine (Oncology) at Stanford University School of Medicine, with a clinical and research focus in solid tumor cellular therapy and melanoma.
Dr. Julve completed his medical training at Barts and The Royal London School of Medicine in the United Kingdom, followed by internal medicine training at teaching hospitals across North and Central London. He was subsequently awarded a National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) Academic Clinical Fellowship in Medical Oncology at Imperial College London. During this time, alongside his clinical training, he conducted translational research within the King’s College London Immunoengineering group, focusing on transcriptional optimization of CAR-T cell therapies.
Dr. Julve later completed advanced clinical fellowships in solid tumor cellular therapy and melanoma at The Royal Marsden Hospital, London, and earned an MD(Res) doctorate investigating the role of immunosuppressive granulocytes in patients receiving immunotherapy.
He is a clinical investigator specializing in melanoma, immuno-oncology, and solid tumor cellular therapy, with a particular emphasis on translating mechanistic insights from the laboratory into novel therapeutic strategies for patients.
