Harmeet Bedi
Clinical Associate Professor, Medicine - Pulmonary, Allergy & Critical Care Medicine
BioDr. Harmeet Bedi is the Director of Interventional Pulmonology & Bronchoscopy at Stanford University. His expertise is in minimally invasive techniques used in the diagnosis and treatment of various airway and lung diseases such as lung cancer, benign & malignant airway obstruction, and pleural diseases. He specializes in rigid & flexible bronchoscopy, robotic bronchoscopy, airway stent placement, balloon bronchoplasty, endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS), and various pleural procedures. He also specializes in a variety of tumor ablative therapies including laser therapy, electrocautery, argon plasma coagulation (APC), brachytherapy, and cryotherapy.
He founded the cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) - guided bronchoscopy program at Stanford in 2019. CBCT-guided bronchoscopy is a novel and cutting-edge technique which combines bronchoscopy with CT imaging, allowing for improved localization and diagnosis of peripheral lung nodules. Additionally, CBCT-guided bronchoscopy will allow for numerous potential cancer therapies that are currently under development.
Dr. Bedi is a principal investigator and co-investigator on multiple clinical trials related to bronchoscopy, thoracic imaging, pulmonary nodules, and lung cancer. Specifically, he has multiple research interests within the realm of bronchoscopic device innovation and CBCT-guided bronchoscopy. -

Andrew Beel
Instructor, Structural Biology
BioAndrew Beel received an M.D. and a Ph.D. in Biophysics from Stanford, where he studied the structure and condensation of the eukaryotic chromosome under the supervision of Roger Kornberg. He started his independent research program in late 2022 after receiving an Early Independence Award from the Office of the Director of the National Institutes of Health. His group is broadly interested in mesoscale biological organization and the physical underpinnings thereof, with a current emphasis on the axial core of the metaphase chromosome. The Beel lab is actively recruiting new members at all stages of training; interested parties are encouraged to apply (please direct inquiries to beelaj@stanford.edu).

Jose Behar
MBA, expected graduation 2028
BioI’m from Lima, Peru, and a member of Stanford GSB’s MBA Class of 2028. Before Stanford, I worked across private equity, investment banking, and asset management.
Most recently, I was an Investments Associate at GRIO, the investment office of Grupo Romero (Peru), where I worked on M&A, co-investments alongside global private equity funds, alternative investments, and strategic initiatives across portfolio companies. Earlier in my career, I worked in investment banking and capital markets.
At Stanford, I’m excited to deepen my experience in private equity and entrepreneurial finance, while exploring how investing can help build and scale businesses in Latin America and beyond.
Outside of work, I’m a big soccer fan and enjoy mentoring, traveling, and meeting people from different backgrounds. Always happy to talk investing, business ideas, soccer, or anything Latin America-related. -
