  • Irene L. Llorente

    Irene L. Llorente

    Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery

    BioOriginally from Spain, Irene L. Llorente joined the Neurosurgery Department at Stanford University in 2022. Following her undergraduate degree in Molecular Biology at the University of Leon in Spain, Dr. Llorente completed an MS in Molecular Biology and Biomedicine and a Ph.D. in Neuroscience between the Universities of Leon (Spain) and Florence (Italy). She conducted a postdoctoral fellowship in the Neurology Department at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA where she also started her independent career as a Research Assistant Professor. Her research interests are largely directed toward understanding the biology of white matter repair in central nervous system disorders. She is particularly interested in leveraging the current technologies emerging in the stem cell field to develop more efficient and effective stem cell-based therapies for stroke, spinal cord injury, Traumatic brain injury, and vascular dementia patients.

  • Anson Lowe

    Anson Lowe

    Associate Professor of Medicine (Gastroenterology and Hepatology), Emeritus

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe laboratory is focused on the relationship between injury, wound healing, and cancer. Esophageal, gastric, and pancreatic cancers are a focus. We are particularly interested in the regulation of cell signaling by EGFR, the EGF receptor. In addition to cancer pathogenesis, active projects include the development of new diagnostic assays and drugs.

  • Christopher Lowe

    Christopher Lowe

    John B. and Jean De Nault Professor of Marine Science at the Hopkins Marine Station

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsEvolution and development, specifically the evolution of the deuterostomes

  • Donald Lowe

    Donald Lowe

    Max Steineke Professor in Earth Sciences, Emeritus

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsClastic sedimentology, deep-water sedimentation mechanics and facies; Archean depositional systems and crustal development

  • Henry J. Lowe, MD

    Henry J. Lowe, MD

    Associate Professor of Medicine (General Medical Disciplines) at the Stanford University Medical Center, Emeritus

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research in the field of biomedical informatics over the past 30 years has focused on the development of novel uses of information technology and computer science to improve human health. My current interests include the Electronic Health Record (EHR), biomedical knowledge representation, Internet applications in healthcare, clinical data warehouses, clinical data and text mining, academic social networking and the use of information technology to support clinical and translational research.

  • Prashant Loyalka

    Prashant Loyalka

    Associate Professor of Education and Senior Fellow at the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsPrashant's research focuses on examining/addressing inequalities in the education of youth and on understanding/improving the quality of education received by youth in a number of countries including China, India, Russia, and the United States. In the course of addressing educational inequalities, Prashant examines the consequences of tracking, financial and informational constraints, as well as social and psychological factors in highly competitive education systems. His work on understanding educational quality is built around research that assesses and compares student learning in higher education, high school and compulsory schooling. He furthermore conducts large-scale evaluations of educational programs and policies that seek to improve student outcomes.

  • Bingwei Lu

    Bingwei Lu

    Professor of Pathology

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe are interested in understanding how neural stem cells balance their self-renewal and differentiation and how deregulation of this process can result in brain tumor. We are also interested in mechanisms of neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases. We are using both Drosophila and mammalian models to address these fundamental questions.

  • Donghui Lu

    Donghui Lu

    Senior Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory

    BioDonghui Lu is a senior scientist at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. He is the deputy director of the Materials Science Division at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource leading the Soft X-ray Group. His research interests lie in studying quantum materials, such as high temperature superconductors, using high resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. He is also an expert in developing modern synchrotron instrumentations, including cutting-edge soft x-ray beamlines and sophisticated endstations with versatile sample environments and materials synthesis capabilities.

  • Lu,Guolan

    Lu,Guolan

    Assistant Professor of Urology

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe Lu Lab develops and integrates AI, spatial multi-omics, and advanced imaging to understand and model how cells, tissues, and therapeutic agents interact in their native spatial context, and how these interactions drive disease progression and treatment response.
