Courtney Wusthoff, MD
Member, Maternal & Child Health Research Institute (MCHRI)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy projects focus on clinical research in newborns with, or at risk, for brain injury. I use EEG in at-risk neonates to better understand the underlying pathophysiology of risk factors that may lead to worse outcomes. I am particularly interested in neonatal seizures and how they may exacerbate perinatal brain injury with a goal to identify treatments that might protect the vulnerable brain. I am also interested in EEG in other pediatric populations, as well as medical ethics and global health.

Joanna Wysocka
Lorry Lokey Professor and Professor of Developmental Biology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe precise and robust regulation of gene expression is a cornerstone for complex biological life. Research in our laboratory is focused on understanding how regulatory information encoded by the genome is integrated with the transcriptional machinery and chromatin context to allow for emergence of form and function during human embryogenesis and evolution, and how perturbations in this process lead to disease.

Ruohan Xia
Postdoctoral Scholar, Psychiatry
BioRuohan's research centers around understanding the genetic and environmental mechanisms supporting infants' and young children's socioemotional development through the lens of developmental cognitive neuroscience. Her PhD research focused on uncovering he neural and caregiver correlates on infants' emotion-perception neural circuitry during live interactions in typically developing children using electroencephalogram (EEG). At Stanford, she is pursuing research questions using a combination of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and EEG to identify the endophenotype of the neural anatomy and function in children with rare genetic conditions such as neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and Noonan Syndrome (NS) differ from typically developing counterparts, and explore how such neural differences may lead to unique developmental trajectory of social communication.
