Emory Hsu, M.D.
Clinical Assistant Professor (Affiliated), Medicine - Med/Endocrinology
Staff, Medicine - Med/EndocrinologyBioEmory Hsu received his Bachelor’s degree in Biochemical Sciences with honors from Harvard University. He then attended medical school at Vanderbilt University, during which he completed an extra research year fellowship through Howard Hughes Medical Institute and the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland. He then completed his internship and residency training in Internal Medicine - research track at Emory University, followed by a fellowship in Endocrinology, Lipids, and Metabolism there. He is board certified in both Internal Medicine and Endocrinology. He is actively involved in the teaching and training of Stanford University Endocrinology fellows, Internal Medicine residents, and medical students.

Seung K. Kim M.D., Ph.D.
KM Mulberry Professor, Professor of Developmental Biology, of Medicine (Endocrinology) and, by courtesy, of Pediatrics (Endocrinology)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe study the development of pancreatic islet cells using molecular, embryologic and genetic methods in several model systems, including mice, pigs, human pancreas, embryonic stem cells, and Drosophila. Our work suggests that critical factors required for islet development are also needed to maintain essential functions of the mature islet. These approaches have informed efforts to generate replacement islets from renewable sources for diabetes.

Sun Kim, M.D. M.S.
Associate Professor of Medicine (Endocrinology)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe are interested in studying the pathophysiological processes that contribute to glucose intolerance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. My current research focuses on characterizing pancreatic beta-cell function in populations with significant insulin resistance and vulnerability to developing diabetes: individuals with schizophrenia, morbid obesity, and history of gestational diabetes.

Fredric Kraemer
Gerald M. Reaven, MD, Professor of Endocrinology, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur research interests are in the general area of cellular lipid and lipoprotein metabolism. The work is aimed primarily at understanding the mechanisms regulating cholesterol and triglyceride accumulation in cells. We utilize a variety of techniques from cell biology, biochemistry, and molecular biology.

Rayhan A. Lal, MD
Assistant Professor of Medicine (Endocrinology) and of Pediatrics (Endocrinology)
BioI grew up in the east bay area and have had type 1 diabetes for 30+ years. I studied electrical engineering and computer science at U.C. Berkeley (Go Bears!) with the hope of applying my knowledge to diabetes technology. The significance of clinical practice became clear to me after my siblings also developed diabetes. I am devoting my life to advancing the care of diabetes in people of all ages.

Jennifer Lee
Professor of Medicine (Endocrinology) and, by courtesy, of Epidemiology and Population Health
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am a healthcare lead and physician scientist for innovation, R&D, and advanced analytics, and oversee these aspects at VA Palo Alto/VHA, within Stanford-VA relationship. The VA has the US's largest health care system and longest running EHR. I prioritize enabling multiple partners (industry, government, academia, foundations), to innovate/R&D in the VA health care system. We prioritize mentoring students from various Schools to become future leaders in R&D, innovation, and healthcare.

Tracey McLaughlin
Professor of Medicine (Endocrinology)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. McLaughlin conducts clinical research related to obesity, insulin resistance, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Current studies include: 1) the impact of macronutrient composition on metabolism, DM2 and CVD; 2) comparison of different weight loss diets on metabolism and CVD risk reduction ; 3) role of adipocytes and adipose tissue immune cells in modulating insulin resistance; 4) use of continuous glucose monitoring and multi-omics to define metabolic phenotype and precision diets
