Md Tauhidul Islam
Assistant Professor of Radiation Oncology (Radiation Physics)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research focuses on developing computationally efficient and clinically reliable AI methods for biomedical imaging and high-dimensional molecular data, with an emphasis on cancer and neurological disease. The Islam Lab designs novel representations and learning frameworks that improve deep learning performance in data-constrained biomedical settings, including methods that transform tabular omics data into spatially meaningful representations.

Lu Ji
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiation Biology
BioDriven by the enthusiasm and curiosity about life science and human disease, I have been working on cancer research for more than 5 years. I focus on developing novel therapeutic targets from tumor microenvironment and uncovering mechanisms of tumor progression, especially with expertise in gastrointestinal tumor biology and tumor microenvironment analysis. Now I'm digging into a field about finding a way to empower immunotherapy by appropriately utilizing radiation therapy.

Anusha Kalbasi, MD
Associate Professor of Radiation Oncology (Radiation Therapy)
BioDr. Kalbasi is a physician-scientist at the Stanford Cancer Institute. In the clinic, Dr. Kalbasi is a radiation oncologist specializing in the treatment of patients with sarcoma and other solid tumors, with expertise in early phase clinical trials related to immunotherapy, cellular therapy, and radiation therapy.
The Kalbasi laboratory studies cancer immunology, with a focus on understanding—and re-engineering—the molecular conversations that immune cells have with one another and with cancer cells, especially through cytokines. By mapping how these signals are sent, received, and interpreted within immune cells and cancer cells, the lab aims to design next-generation immunotherapies that deliver the right messages at the right time—making cancer-fighting cells more potent, more persistent, and more precise. -

Nataliya Kovalchuk
Clinical Professor, Radiation Oncology - Radiation Physics
BioNataliya Kovalchuk is a Clinical Professor at Stanford Radiation Oncology department and an Adjunct Professor at MD Anderson Cancer Center. She completed her residency at Mayo Clinic and worked at Massachusetts General Hospital/Boston Medical Center/Harvard Medical School. Dr. Kovalchuk is one of the leaders in the clinical implementation of Biology-Guided Radiotherapy and auto-planning techniques for Total Body Irradiation (TBI), Total Marrow Lymphoid Irradiation (TMLI), and Cranio-Spinal Irradiation (CSI), with more than 200 publications and presentations. She serves on multiple committees at AAPM, ASTRO, NRG, COG, and volunteers for ABR as an examiner. She is also a physics chair for four NRG and COG clinical trials, physics lead for the NRG Head and Neck committee and the VMAT TBI workgroup. In recognition of her educational efforts, she has been honored with six teaching awards from ARRO, AAPM, Stanford, and Harvard. Since the full-scale russian invasion of Ukraine, Nataliya directed her efforts to helping Ukraine as a co-founder and president of Help Ukraine Group. Her dedication was recognized with the Richard Hoppe Leadership Award and the Parliament of Ukraine Certificate of Merit for the Service to the People of Ukraine.
