Quan (Donny) V. Hoang, MD, PhD
Clinical Associate Professor, Ophthalmology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Hoang's research focuses on extreme near-sightedness, a significant cause of blindness, especially in Southeast Asia. While mild myopia is merely inconvenient, pathologic myopia involves extreme levels of lifelong, progressive eye elongation and eyewall thinning that can lead to blindness. He employs cutting-edge non-invasive imaging to identify patients at greatest risk of vision loss, and leads lab-based studies to discover novel treatments to stunt near-sightedness.and prevent blindness.

Jon Hochstein
Resident in Cardiothoracic Surgery - Thoracic Surgery
Affiliate, Department FundsBioI'm a Cardiothoracic Surgery resident at Stanford Health Care. I also completed an intern year in Pediatrics resident at Boston Children’s Hospital before transitioning to cardiothoracic surgery. I received my MD from Harvard Medical School in the Health Sciences and Technology program joint with MIT. I trained as a biomedical engineering at the Johns Hopkins University with a focus in instrumentation.
I've interests in medical devices spanning from assistive robotics, surgical devices, to point of care devices. I have extensive experience working in the electronics and coding aspect of device development.
My long term goal is to become a congenital cardiovascular surgeon and improve the field of transplantation (partial and whole), congenital cardiac surgery techniques, and congenital mechanical circulatory support. This vocation comes from my personal experience receiving a heart transplant in 1999. -

Kevin William Hoffman, MD, PhD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences - Child & Adolescent Psychiatry and Child Development
BioKevin is a child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist who primarily works with the Immune Behavioral Health (IBH) clinic at Stanford University. Kevin completed his Bachelor’s degree at Haverford College. He then moved to New York to complete combined MD and PhD degrees at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, where his dissertation research in the department of microbiology was focused on how the immune system responds to viral neuroinvasion. Kevin returned to Pennsylvania for his psychiatry residency at the University of Pennsylvania and child and adolescent psychiatry fellowship at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. As a resident and fellow, Kevin has developed clinical interests in the overlap between medical and psychiatric illness, particularly with regards to neurodevelopmental and psychotic disorders. He also maintained research interests in the same areas, completing several projects with his mentor, Dr. Ran Barzilay, on the influence inflammatory disorders and physiologic distress have on children’s mental health. Kevin has continued to pursue these interests at Stanford, where he works with children with combined immunologic and psychiatric illness, with special focus and research interests in areas of autism and psychosis.

Ethan Hoffmann, Ph.D.
Clinical Assistant Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
BioEthan Hoffmann, Ph.D., is a clinical psychologist in the Couples and Family Therapy Clinic, WellConnect Program, and ADAPT Clinic within the Division of General Psychiatry and Psychology. His clinical specialties include couple and family therapy, health worker mental health, and sexual health. His clinical approach is grounded in evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapies including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD (CPT-PTSD), Exposure and Response Prevention for OCD (ExRP), Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy (IBCT), and Cognitive Behavioral Couple Therapy (CBCT)--and also draws on structural family therapy, feminist therapy, and relational-cultural psychotherapies. Dr. Hoffmann is the program director for the WellConnect Couples Coaching Program, a short-term coaching program for Stanford School of Medicine faculty and their partners. He also leads team-based support groups for clinical programs in the School of Medicine experiencing periods of heightened stress or internal transition. He is a clinical supervisor in couple and family therapy for advanced graduate students in the Palo Alto University Stanford PsyD Consortium and lectures and leads workshops on couple and family therapy, psychological interventions for sexual health concerns, and relationship and team-based interventions for health care workers. His research interests include relational and systemic interventions for health care workers and theoretical issues in men's mental health research and practice. He is the co-author of the 2019 textbook The Psychology of Men in Context.

Florian Hoffmann, Ph.D.
Postdoctoral Scholar, Hematology
BioFlorian is a postdoctoral researcher in Dr. Ami Bhatt's laboratory at Stanford University. He earned his Ph.D. in Biochemistry working in Dr. Sam Sternberg's group at Columbia University where he studied atypical CRISPR systems in prokaryotes, in search of molecular tools for programmable gene editing and gene regulation. His studies elucidate the mechanisms of a novel RNA-guided transposition system, the evolutionary ancestors of the gene editing enzymes Cas9 and Cas12, and an unprecedented Cas12f enzyme that creates custom de novo transcription start sites without requiring promoter elements. Florian is fascinated by the vast untapped resources of novel gene functions encoded in bacteria and their viruses (bacteriophages). He is an inventor on multiple patents related to his doctoral work. During his postdoctoral work at Stanford, he aims to discover novel paradigms of bacteria-virus interactions and how these shape the human gut microbiome, and human health. To investigate these systems, he harnesses interdisciplinary approaches, combining computational gene discovery with experimental techniques in Molecular Biology, Genetics and Biochemistry.
