Shannon White
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
BioHi, I'm Shannon White. I began my postdoctoral fellowship in Michael Snyder's lab in the fall of 2020. I received my PhD from Georgetown University in Tumor Biology in Chunling Yi's lab. My graduate worked explore the signaling and metabolic vulnerabilities of NF2-mutant tumors following YAP/TAZ depletion. My postdoctoral work is exploring the epigenetic hallmarks that contribute to colon cancer progression and drug resistance. I am developing colon organoids derived from pre-cancerous polyp tissue collected from Familial Adenomatous Polyposis patients as a model system to investigate epigenetic and signaling responses to chemoprevention treatments.

Zachary Bruce White II
Affiliate, Department Funds
Resident in Radiation Oncology - Radiation TherapyBioI am a physician-leader committed to advancing equitable health care through both clinical care and national policy. My journey into medicine began in childhood, when my mother survived breast cancer. It was a formative experience that ignited my passion for oncology and my resolve to improve care for those most in need.
A native of Birmingham, Alabama, I graduated summa cum laude from Tuskegee University and earned my MD from the University of South Alabama College of Medicine. I currently serve as one of the Chief Residents in Radiation Oncology at Stanford University.
In 2024, I was appointed by the President of the United States as a White House Fellow, serving in the Office of the Secretary at the Department of Veterans Affairs. In that role, I contributed to enterprise-wide efforts to improve care delivery and advance innovation within the nation’s largest integrated health care system, serving as Special Advisor to the Deputy Secretary and supporting senior leadership through policy analysis.
I am also the Immediate Past Chair of the Association of Residents in Radiation Oncology (ARRO), where I championed resident advocacy, expanded mentorship and advanced equity across the field of radiation oncology. Beyond my clinical and policy work, I engage deeply with my community, leading health-education initiatives through my church to reduce disparities and promote health in underserved populations.
I remain committed to a career at the intersection of medicine and policy, working to build a health care system where high-quality, compassionate care is accessible to all. -
