BioHenry Nguyen was born and raised in Abbeville, Louisiana, and is a proud graduate of Xavier University of Louisiana. Before becoming a Stanford medical student in 2022, Henry co-founded organizations dedicated to increasing inclusivity in the fields of competitive athletics, the performing arts, and media production. Stanford’s distinct environment has allowed him to continue nurturing these organizations during medical school, and he has also picked up new projects contributing to cutting-edge innovation in the fields of biotechnology, medical education, and video game design.
Henry has taken classes at Stanford’s law school, business school, and engineering school to augment his MD education. He then applied these skills to assist multiple companies in successfully acquiring venture capital funding, and he continues to serve as a trusted advisor to major Artificial Intelligence firms, such as Synaptiq Learning, Anthropic, and Snorkel AI. Henry is the youngest person to ever be elected to the Stanford Medicine Alumni Board of Governors and has been awarded multiple Stanford-based grants to support his scholarly activity in neuroimaging. Lastly, he has actively supported the Stanford Medicine Radiology Department by reviving the Radiology Interest Group, leading pre-clinical radiology electives, and designing a completely new radiology clerkship.
Henry hopes to follow the example of his mentors by using the unique merits of radiology to combine his passions for clinical care, academic scholarship, and industrial innovation. Most importantly, he plans to dedicate his career to increasing access to state-of-the-art healthcare, so that the advancements of his classmates and colleagues can one day be available to the patients in his hometown. -
