Sean M. Wu
Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine) and, by courtesy, of Pediatrics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy lab seeks to identify mechanisms regulating cardiac lineage commitment during embryonic development and the biology of cardiac progenitor cells in development and disease. We believe that by understanding the transcriptional and epigenetic basis of cardiomyocyte growth and differentiation, we can identify the most effective ways to repair diseased adult hearts. We employ mouse and human embryonic and induced pluripotent stem cells as well as rodents as our in vivo models for investigation.

Yilei Wu
Laboratory Services Manager 2, Chemistry
BioAs a research scientist at Stanford University, I am passionate about advancing the field of organic electronics and solar energy conversion. I have over 15 years of experience in designing, synthesizing, and applying novel organic materials for various applications, such as thin-film transistors, solar cells, spintronics, fluorescence imaging, and molecular machines. I work to develop high-performance organic materials for solution printable solar cells and wearable electronics. I leverage my expertise in supramolecular chemistry, thin-film deposition, and device characterization to optimize the donor-acceptor interfaces and bulk morphology of organic photovoltaic materials. My work contributes to the development of flexible and lightweight solar cells that can provide a sustainable and versatile solution for the modern military and civilian needs.
I oversee the operation and management of Chemistry department laboratory teaching facilities. I also oversee and administer health and safety programs and ensure safety compliance.
As instructor, I teach CHEM 100: Chemical Laboratory and Safety Skills. This is a short in-lab course that is only held in the second week of the Autumn quarter. It provides training in basic chemical laboratory procedures and chemical safety to fulfill the safety training requirement for CHEM 121 and more advanced laboratory courses. The following topics are covered: Reading and Understanding Safety Data Sheets (SDS), Exploring Hazards and Risks, Waste Management, Basic Purification (TLC, Extraction, Filtration, etc.) and Analysis Techniques. In spring 2026 I will teach CHEM 121: Understanding the Natural and Unnatural World through Chemistry. -

Courtney Wusthoff, MD
Member, Maternal & Child Health Research Institute (MCHRI)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy projects focus on clinical research in newborns with, or at risk, for brain injury. I use EEG in at-risk neonates to better understand the underlying pathophysiology of risk factors that may lead to worse outcomes. I am particularly interested in neonatal seizures and how they may exacerbate perinatal brain injury with a goal to identify treatments that might protect the vulnerable brain. I am also interested in EEG in other pediatric populations, as well as medical ethics and global health.

Joanna Wysocka
Lorry Lokey Professor and Professor of Developmental Biology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe precise and robust regulation of gene expression is a cornerstone for complex biological life. Research in our laboratory is focused on understanding how regulatory information encoded by the genome is integrated with the transcriptional machinery and chromatin context to allow for emergence of form and function during human embryogenesis and evolution, and how perturbations in this process lead to disease.
