Daphne O. Martschenko
Assistant Professor (Research) of Pediatrics (Stanford Center for Biomedical Ethics)
BioDr. Daphne Oluwaseun Martschenko is an Assistant Professor at the Laurie J. Girand Center for Biomedical Ethics at Stanford. Her scholarship identifies novel ways to examine and enhance the ethical and socially responsible conduct, translation, and interpretation of human genetic research.
Dr. Martschenko is passionate about fostering public and community engagement with controversial scientific research. She has appeared in the New York Times and on numerous podcasts including Freakonomics Radio. Dr. Martschenko’s work is published in publicly accessible media outlets such as Scientific American and The Conversation. In 2023, she was named one of 10 Scientists to Watch by ScienceNews.
Dr. Martschenko is author of the book What We Inherit: How New Technologies and Old Myths Are Shaping Our Genomic Future, which she wrote with friend and colleague Sam Trejo, a sociologist at Princeton University. Over the past decade, the field of human genetics has rapidly produced a wide range of never-before-seen genomic tools; together, they debate and discuss a range of social, ethical, and policy issues raised by this so-called DNA revolution. Though there’s plenty the two disagree about, they share a firm belief that—in order to successfully navigate the transition to a society where genetic prediction is increasingly accurate and available—it is vital that society take seriously the impact both of DNA and of pernicious genetic myths. -

Mohamad Matout, MD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
BioDr. Mohamad Matout is a board-certified, fellowship-trained psychiatrist with Stanford Health Care. He is also a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Matout specializes in using brain stimulation therapies to treat mental illnesses and neurological disorders that do not respond to standard treatments. These therapies include deep brain stimulation (DBS), electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). He serves as the attending psychiatrist for the Youth TMS Clinic at Stanford Health Care, providing transcranial magnetic stimulation for adolescents with treatment-resistant mood disorders. Dr. Matout also uses avatar therapy, an investigational treatment for psychosis that involves using a digital avatar to represent the voices a patient hears.
Dr. Matout’s research centers on brain health as a unifying framework for understanding psychiatric illness across the lifespan. Using a statistical modeling technique called psychometric network analysis, he maps how psychiatric symptoms mutually reinforce or suppress one another. This method reveals the structure of mental illness beyond traditional diagnostic categories. Dr. Matout developed the approach through his graduate work on brain health in HIV and post-COVID syndrome. He now applies it to neuromodulation (changing nerve signals for treatment) and other novel interventions.
Dr. Matout’s two primary lines of research are TMS for adolescents and avatar therapy. He also contributes to a broader range of neuromodulation studies through collaboration with the Brain Stimulation Lab at Stanford University School of Medicine. Beyond his clinical and research work, Dr. Matout is co-founder of AVAtalk Technologies Inc., a mental health technology startup focused on avatar-based therapeutic solutions.
Dr. Matout has authored peer-reviewed publications in Social Psychiatry and Psychiatric Epidemiology, Quality of Life Research, and CEN Case Reports. He has also contributed chapters to Current Medical Diagnosis & Treatment 2027 and Katzung & Trevor's Basic & Clinical Pharmacology (17th ed., McGraw-Hill, in press).
Dr. Matout is a member of the American Neuropsychiatric Association (ANPA) and the Brain Stimulation Society (BraSS), where he serves as assistant treasurer. -
