Melanie Hayden Gephart
Professor of Neurosurgery and, by courtesy, of Neurology and Neurological Sciences
BioI am a brain tumor neurosurgeon, treating patients with malignant and benign tumors, including gliomas, brain metastases, meningiomas, and schwannomas. I direct the Stanford Brain Tumor Center and the Stanford Brain Metastasis Consortium, collaborative unions of physicians and scientists looking to improve our understanding and treatment of brain tumors. My laboratory seeks greater understanding of the mechanisms driving tumorigenesis and disease progression in malignant brain tumors. We study how rare cancer cell populations survive and migrate in the brain, inadvertently supported by native brain cells. We develop novel cerebrospinal fluid-based biomarkers to track brain cancer treatment response, relapse, and neurotoxicity. Our bedside-to-bench-to-bedside research model builds on a foundation of generously donated patient samples, where we test mechanisms of brain cancer growth, develop novel pre-clinical models that reliably recapitulate the human disease, and facilitate clinical trials of new treatments for patients with brain cancer.

Siyu He
Postdoctoral Scholar, Biomedical Data Sciences
BioI am a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Biomedical Data Science at Stanford University, where I am advised by Dr. James Zou and Dr. Stephen Quake.
My research interests lie at the intersection of statistical machine learning, computational biology, stem cell engineering, and disease modeling. My mission is to leverage AI methodologies in biomedicine to accelerate our understanding of diseases. I earned my PhD in Biomedical Engineering from Columbia University, where I am co-advised by Dr. Kam Leong and Dr. Elham Azizi. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Physics from Xi'an Jiaotong University. -
Yan He
Postdoctoral Scholar, Infectious Diseases
BioI am an air quality and environmental health researcher with experience in field monitoring, exposure assessment, and spatial analysis. My research focuses on characterizing air pollution across communities, identifying potential sources, and improving our understanding of environmental exposures.
