Sally Mahmoud-Werthmann
Clinical Assistant Professor, Emergency Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Mahmoud-Werthmann's research focuses on implementation science, health equity, and healthcare delivery innovation, with an emphasis on improving care for patients experiencing social and structural barriers to health. She is particularly interested in understanding how evidence-based interventions can be effectively implemented, adapted, and scaled within real-world healthcare settings to improve access, quality, and outcomes for vulnerable populations.
A central theme of her work is centering the experiences of patients and communities in the design of healthcare interventions. She has a strong interest in qualitative and mixed-methods research and values approaches that elevate patient perspectives, identify barriers to care, and inform the development of more responsive healthcare systems. Her current work includes qualitative research exploring telehealth access and utilization among unstably housed populations, with a particular focus on co-designing potential solutions alongside patients and community stakeholders.
Her research also includes evaluation of community health worker programs, implementation strategies to increase adoption of evidence-based addiction treatment, including emergency department naltrexone prescribing, and operational approaches to addressing health-related social needs within healthcare systems. More broadly, she is interested in developing and evaluating scalable models that improve care transitions, strengthen system navigation, and advance health equity across the continuum of care.
In addition to her health services and implementation research, Dr. Mahmoud-Werthmann is interested in advancing equity within academic medicine. Her work in this area focuses on understanding barriers to advancement for women in emergency medicine and exploring innovative models of mentorship, sponsorship, and professional development that promote equitable career advancement and leadership opportunities. -

Pete Mahowald
Adjunct Lecturer, Electrical Engineering
BioInterests include wireless communication systems like those found in IoT and satellites, especially in the context of the student technology clubs. These clubs can support the curriculum, host career exploration and experiment with the wise application of AI in lab engineering. Of current interest is SMesh which uses LoRa Mesh Networking, the SAMWISE satellite testing, and classes such as EE156 (PCBs), EE133 (radio components), EE186 (embedded processors) and the AA capstone class for satellites. Experience in high volume and contract design and manufacturing at HP and Apple.

Danielle Mai
Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering and, by courtesy, of Materials Science and Engineering
BioDanielle J. Mai joined the Department of Chemical Engineering at Stanford in January 2020. She earned her B.S.E. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Michigan and her M.S. and Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Dr. Mai was an Arnold O. Beckman Postdoctoral Fellow at MIT, where she engineered materials with selective biomolecular transport properties, elucidated mechanisms of toughness and extensibility in entangled associative hydrogels, and developed high-throughput methods for the discovery of polypeptide materials. The Mai Lab engineers biopolymers, which are the building blocks of life. Specifically, the group integrates precise biopolymer engineering with multi-scale experimental characterization to advance biomaterials development and to enhance fundamental understanding of soft matter physics. Dr. Mai's work has been recognized through the AIChE 35 Under 35 Award (2020), APS DPOLY/UKPPG Lecture Exchange (2021), Air Force Office of Scientific Research Young Investigator Program Award (2022), ACS PMSE Arthur K. Doolittle Award (2023), and MIT Technology Review List of 35 Innovators Under 35 (2023).
