Keith Van Haren, MD
Associate Professor of Neurology and Neurological Sciences (Pediatric Neurology) and of Pediatrics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur research team is working to develop new treatments for children at risk of neurodegenerative diseases. We are primarily focused on multiple sclerosis and X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy, two conditions that involve inflammatory and metabolic disruption of the myelin that insulates brain cells. A key area of interest for us is how nutrient deficiencies during childhood may contribute to the disease processes and whether nutritional interventions could play a role in prevention.

Maike van Niekerk, PhD
MD Student with Scholarly Concentration in Community Health / Surgery, expected graduation Spring 2026
BioMaike van Niekerk is pursuing an MD at Stanford School of Medicine as a Knight-Hennessy Scholar. She is currently applying into orthopaedic surgery residency.
Maike earned her bachelor’s degree in cancer- and global health-focused nursing at Dalhousie University as a Schulich Leader Scholar, and her Ph.D. in Psychiatry at the University of Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar. Upon completing her Ph.D., she worked as a consultant for the World Health Organization advising on guideline development for integrating mental and physical healthcare in low-resource settings. Her research expertises are in the development and implementation of biopsychosocial models of care.
At Stanford, she is working alongside Dr. Tileston and members of the Pediatric Orthopaedic Research Program to develop new models of care for pediatric patients with scoliosis, aimed at improving mental and physical health outcomes in this patient population.
Maike aspires to improve healthcare access for underserved communities by pioneering holistic treatment programs combining insights from medicine, psychiatry, and nursing to improve care for orthopaedic patients. -

Capucine Van Rechem
Assistant Professor of Pathology (Pathology Research)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy long-term interest lies in understanding the impact chromatin modifiers have on disease development and progression so that more optimal therapeutic opportunities can be achieved. My laboratory explores the direct molecular impact of chromatin-modifying enzymes during cell cycle progression, and characterizes the unappreciated and unconventional roles that these chromatin factors have on cytoplasmic function such as protein synthesis.
