Gordon Wang
Clinical Associate Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
BioGordon Wang received his Bachelors of Arts and Science from the University of California, Davis in 2000 majoring in Comparative literature and Genetics. He received his PhD under Dr. Mu-ming Poo at the University of California, Berkeley in 2005 studying the role of ion channels in mediating neuronal growthcone guidance decisions. As a postdoctoral scholar in the lab of Dr. Stephen Smith at Stanford University, Gordon developed a computational architecture for the detailed study of molecular diversity in synapses and using this system, he studied the diverse role of synaptic diversity in neurodevelopmental diseases, such as fragile x syndrome. In a co-postdoc in Dr. Philippe Mourrain's lab, he studied the dynamic plasticity of synapses in sleep and circadian cycles in larval zebrafish using multi-photon microscopy. The Wang lab focuses on developing imaging tools to deeply analyze proteins, mRNA and lipids at the synapses, and understand how synaptic heterogeneity affect the function of neural circuits throughout development and aging and in diseases such as autism and fragile x syndrome.

Jack Tzu-Chieh Wang, MD, PhD
Affiliate, Adult Neurology
BioDr. Wang is a board-certified, fellowship-trained neurocritical care specialist at Stanford Health Care. He is also an instructor in the Neurocritical Care Program of the Department of Neurology & Neurological Sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Wang has clinical and research interests in stroke and traumatic brain injury. He provides care for critically ill patients with neurological illnesses in the intensive care unit (ICU) at Stanford Hospital. He also teaches fellows, residents, and medical students how to provide critical neurological care.
As a physician-scientist, Dr. Wang leads an ongoing effort to identify new targets for therapy to promote functional recovery after brain and spinal cord injuries. He has previously completed research on these topics for the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS). He also performs research funded by the American Heart Association, American Academy of Neurology, and Alzheimer’s Association.
Dr. Wang has published in several top peer-reviewed journals, including Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Journal of Cell Biology, and Journal of Neuroscience. He has presented his research at nationwide and worldwide conferences. His presentations mainly focus on the degeneration of axons (fibers that connect nerve cells and help them communicate) and cognitive decline following stroke. He also serves as an ad hoc reviewer for a number of publications, including Cell, Neuron, Nature, and Science.
Dr. Wang is a member of the American Academy of Neurology, American Heart Association, Neurocritical Care Society, Society of Critical Care Medicine, and Society for Neuroscience. -

Her clinical interests include medical dermatology and cutaneous oncology, including melanoma, high-risk skin cancer, and cutaneous lymphoma. Her research interests include the histopathologic characterization of rare skin disorders and improving the detection and treatment of skin cancers. -
Jia Wang
Medical/Radiation Physicist, Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S)
BioI am the head of the Diagnostic Medical Physics group at Environmental Health and Safety department. Our group provides medical physics services for Stanford Health Care, Lucille Packard Children's Hospital, and Veterans Affairs Palo Alto Health Care System. The scope of our work includes:
• Radiation safety of X-ray imaging practice to ascertain the compliance of State and Federal regulations, The Joint Commission recommendations, requirements from related accreditation bodies and University policies
• Quality control program of X-ray imaging practice (Computed tomography, Interventional equipment, Fluoroscopy and Radiography) for Imaging and Interventional Services at hospitals
• Radiation dose monitoring and CT protocol optimization; Work with each clinical section on task-specific CT Dose and Image Quality optimization by utilizing our state-of-the-art CT equipment and novel iterative reconstruction techniques
• Review proposed research uses of x-rays in human subjects for Stanford IRB: evaluate doses and estimate risks and advise research investigators on radiation safety issues and how to solve related problems.
• Staff and trainee education on topics including CT technology, CT dose optimization, Fluoroscopy dose optimization, and radiation risk from ionizing imaging exams
• Clinical innovation: we work with physicians and hospital imaging and interventional teams on clinical research projects and activities that can be readily translated to patient care in Stanford affiliated health care systems -
