Matthew P. Scott
Professor of Developmental Biology, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur research has been focused on the genetic regulation of animal development and its relation to birth defects, cancer, and neurodegeneration. We studied mechanisms and functions of Hedgehog (Hh) signaling, which controls cell fates and growth, in the context of normal development and brain cancer. We studied a neurodegenerative disease, Niemann-Pick C syndrome, that affects intracellular organelle movements and sterol homeostasis. Due to Dr. Scott's new job, the lab is no longer active.

Susan Meyhak Seav
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Endocrinology, Gerontology, & Metabolism
Clinical Assistant Professor (By courtesy), NeurosurgeryBioDr. Seav is a board-certified endocrinologist and Clinical Assistant Professor in the Division of Endocrinology at Stanford and, by courtesy, the Department of Neurosurgery. She graduated from Harvard University with an honors degree in molecular and cellular biology before completing her medical education and residency at the University of California, San Diego. She then completed her endocrinology fellowship at Stanford University.
She has a special interest in disorders that involve the pituitary and adrenal glands such as acromegaly, Cushing disease, hypopituitarism, and functional adrenal adenomas. Dr. Seav is determined to provide her patients with personalized, evidence-based medicine that will allow them to live their best lives. In addition to caring for patients, Dr. Seav is also passionate about medical education and devoted a chief medical residency year teaching medical students, interns, and residents.
In-person and telehealth appointments with Dr. Seav are available at Stanford Endocrinology Clinic at Hoover Pavilion, Pituitary Center at Stanford Neurosciences Health Center, and the Stanford Brain Tumor Center at Stanford Cancer Center. -
Vittorio Sebastiano
Associate Professor (Research) of Obstetrics and Gynecology (Reproductive, Perinatal & Stem Cell Biology Research)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe thread of Ariadne that connects germ cells, preimplatation development and pluripotent stem cells is the focus of my research, with a specific interest in human development. My long-term goals are: 1. Understanding the biology of germ cells and and their ability to sustain early preimplantation development; 2. Understanding the mechanisms that regulate very early cell fate decisions in human embryos; 3. Understanding the biology of derivation and maintenance of Pluripotent Stem Cells
