Angele Christin
Associate Professor of Communication, by courtesy, of Sociology and Senior Fellow at the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered AI
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsAngèle Christin studies the social and cultural impact of algorithms and artificial intelligence.
Her award-winning book, Metrics at Work: Journalism and the Contested Meaning of Algorithms (Princeton University Press, 2020) examined the dramatic transformations of journalism with the rise of social media platforms, metrics, and algorithms. Drawing on ethnographic methods, Angèle compared how American and French journalists made sense of traffic numbers, which in turn came with distinct effects on the production of news in the two countries.
Her most recent project examines the paradoxes of algorithmic labor through a study of influencers and influencer marketing on YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok. -

Antonios Chronopoulos
Instructor, Medicine - Gastroenterology & Hepatology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research focuses on understanding how extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling in liver fibrosis, particularly in the context of aging, diabetes, and metabolic-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), disrupts tissue mechanical homeostasis and drives hepatocellular carcinoma pathogenesis. The goal is to translate these mechanobiological insights into novel therapies targeting mechanotransduction to prevent or reverse fibrosis and improve patient outcomes with liver cancer and other desmoplastic tumors

Isabella Chu
Temp - Non-Exempt, Center for Population Health Sciences
BioI have been with the Stanford School of Medicine since 2001. I received my MPH in Public Health from UC Berkeley in 2011 and joined The Stanford Center for Population Health Sciences (PHS) in 2016. My research interests focus on social and environmental determinants of health, particularly how the built environment, especially housing and transportation policy, promotes equitable access to the economy, education and other opportunities and can improve public health.
Road deaths have been the leading cause of child and young adult traumatic injury and death in the United States for many years and I want to better understand how better transportation policy can lead to safer streets for people on foot, bicycles and in automobiles.
I am the Associate Director of the Data Core at PHS. The PHS Data Core specializes in hosting large, rich, high risk data which are used by hundreds of researchers to answer questions in precision and population health. My primary responsibilities include overseeing governance and regulatory matters, data security, privacy and ethics and collaboration with the team of research scientists and engineers who have built the PHS Data Core platform. This platform and model have been replicated in several research universities throughout the United States.
Prior to joining PHS I initiated the Stanford Research Registry (SRR) which grew to over 4,000 members within two years and greatly facilitated research participation for both individuals with chronic disease as well as healthy controls in clinical trials and qualitative research. The SRR served as the foundation for the Patient Engagement Portal initiative which allows for bi-directional communication with the entire Stanford patient population and the general public for the purposes of recruitment for research, reporting research findings and allowing research participants to better understand the impacts of their service on the advancement of science.
