Zheng Li
Postdoctoral Scholar, Ophthalmology
BioZheng Li joined Stanford University as a postdoctoral fellow in August 2026, under the mentorship of Dr. Ahmad Al-Moujahed. Her research focuses on understanding the mechanisms underlying inherited retinal degenerations (IRDs), particularly retinitis pigmentosa (RP), and developing novel therapeutic strategies. By integrating single-cell transcriptomics, proteomics, and human-derived data, she aims to identify biomarkers and therapeutic targets for retinal degeneration.
She received her PhD from the Institut de la Vision in Paris, where she studied gene-agnostic neuroprotective strategies to preserve cone photoreceptors in RP. Her long-term goal is to translate mechanistic insights into new therapies for retinal diseases. -

Charles C. Lin, MD
Clinical Professor, Ophthalmology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Lin conducts clinical trials focused on cornea transplantation, corneal edema, and cornea infections at Stanford. His research interests include improving the success and safety of cutting edge surgeries such as ultra-thin DSAEK, DMEK, DALK, and DSO. He is actively researching surgical therapies for corneal edema and Fuchs' Dystrophy. He is among a handful of cornea specialists nationwide with extensive experience using intraoperative OCT imaging to perform cornea transplants.

Yang Lin
Postdoctoral Scholar, Ophthalmology
BioYang Lin is a postdoctoral researcher in the laboratory of Dr. Andreas Tolias in the Department of Ophthalmology at Stanford University, where she joined in February 2024. She is also a member of the Enigma Project at Stanford.
Yang received her Ph.D. in 2023 from the IDG/McGovern Institute for Brain Research at Tsinghua University, where she trained under Dr. Song-Hai Shi. Her doctoral work focused on cortical development, investigating how developmental neuronal origin regulates neocortical map formation and characterizing the behavior and lineage progression of neural progenitors in the mammalian cortex.
As a postdoc, Yang has made a significant transition from developmental neuroscience into systems and computational neuroscience, focusing on how the visual brain supports active, goal-directed behavior. She currently leads behavioral and electrophysiological mice experiments in the Tolias lab.
