Wan-Jin Lu
Basic Life Research Scientist, Stem Cell Bio Regenerative Med Institute
BioDr. Wan-Jin Lu is a Research Scientist in Dr. Phil Beachy's lab. Wan-Jin grew up in Taiwan, obtained her B.S. in Zoology at National Taiwan University and completed her PhD in Genetics and Development at UT Southwestern in the lab of Dr. John Abrams. Her Ph.D. research involved the identification of the evolutionary conserved function of the tumor suppressor gene p53 that ensures the quality control of germ cells. She then moved to the Bay Area, where she was a Damon Runyon Postdoctoral Fellow in the Institute of Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine in the Beachy lab. Her work currently focuses on understanding the function of Hedgehog signaling in taste receptor cell homeostasis and delineating the mechanisms of taste receptor regeneration after chemotherapy-induced loss.
Since 2017, she has been collaborating with Tabula Muris And Tabula Sapiens Consortium to investigate taste receptor stem cell renewal and regeneration in the Beachy lab. Her work has received funding support from California Institute of Regenerative Medicine (CIRM), Thomas and Stacey Siebel Foundation, and NIH (R21 and R01). -

Yougeng Lu
Postdoctoral Scholar, Biology
BioYougeng Lu (he/him/his) is a Postdoctoral Scholar with the Natural Capital Project on developing urban nature exposure model. His research focuses on exploring the linkages between exposure to urban nature, such as green space and street trees, and individual's physical activity and mental health. Yougeng received his Ph.D. in Urban Planning and Development from the University of Southern California, where he developed a high spatiotemporal resolution PM2.5 prediction model with low-cost air sensors and studied how people's travel behavior affects their air pollution exposure. He holds an M.Sc. in Urban Planning from University of Washington, Seattle; and a B.Sc. in Geography from Wuhan University, China.

Anna Luan
Clinical Assistant Professor, Surgery - Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
BioDr. Anna Luan received her Bachelor and Master of Science degrees in Bioengineering at the University of California, San Diego. She obtained her medical degree and continued on to complete residency in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Stanford. During this time, she was a Donald Laub fellow in global reconstructive surgery with ReSurge International, and was the Ron Milliken Resident Teacher of the Year. Following residency, she completed the combined orthopaedic/plastic surgery Hand and Upper Extremity fellowship at Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard, with further experience in hand and wrist trauma, peripheral nerve surgery, and complex upper limb reconstruction. She is currently a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery within the Department of Surgery.
Her research interests are in innovation and translational research, clinical outcomes, and global surgery. She has particular interests in improving patient care and outcomes by leveraging advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, including machine learning and deep learning. She is an Affiliated Faculty of the Stanford Center for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine and Imaging (AIMI).
