Stephen Ma
Fellow in Graduate Medical Education
Candidate For Affiliation, MedicineBioStephen Ma is a Clinical Informatics Fellow at Stanford University School of Medicine. His fellowship work has focused on the development, implementation, and evaluation of novel technologies to optimize clinical workflows. Areas of focus include 1) the use of generative AI/large language models for a variety of workflows such as patient messages, patient instructions, translation, and ambient clinical documentation, 2) machine learning algorithms for antimicrobial stewardship and laboratory utilization, 3) secure inpatient messages and on-call scheduling, and 4) development of novel user interfaces for clinical and research workflows.
His undergraduate degree was in Electrical Engineering at Princeton University, after which he pursued his MD/PhD at Columbia University. He did his doctoral work in the laboratory of Professor Gordana Vunjak-Novakovic where he developed human cardiac models of disease incorporating patient-derived stem cells, optogenetics, tissue engineering, optoelectronics, and video processing. He subsequently completed his residency in Internal Medicine at Stanford University prior to joining the Clinical Informatics Fellowship. -

Current Research and Scholarly InterestsRecent clinical studies, by us and others, have demonstrated that genetically engineered T cells can eradicate cancers resistant to all other therapies. We are identifying new targets for these therapeutics, exploring pathways of resistance to current cell therapies and creating next generation platforms to overcome therapeutic resistance. We have discovered novel insights into the biology of human T cell exhaustion and developed approaches to prevent and reverse this phenomenon.
