Maneesh Kumar Misra
Clinical Associate Professor, Pathology Clinical
BioDr. Maneesh Kumar Misra, MS, PhD, F(ACHI) is Co-Director Histocompatibility, Immunogenetics and Disease profiling laboratory, and the Associate Professor of Clinical Pathology. He is certified by the American College of Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics. His research and scholarly interests include allogeneic transplantation, autoimmunity, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, immunogenetics, and solid organ transplantation. His research mainly focuses on the detection and functional characterization of alloantibodies in the setting of clinical allogenic transplantation. He has identified and characterized several novel HLA alleles, authored more than 20 peer-reviewed publications, and coauthored a book. Maneesh received his PhD from Banaras Hindu University Institute of Medical Sciences in India, and subsequently held research positions at the Sanjay Gandhi Postgraduate Institute of Medical Sciences. He then completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of California, San Francisco School of Medicine, and an American Society for Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics approved Director-in-training clinical fellowship in transplant immunology and immunogenetics at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine

William Mitch
Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioBill Mitch received a B.A. in Anthropology (Archaeology) from Harvard University in 1993. During his studies, he excavated at Mayan sites in Belize and surveyed sites dating from 2,000 B.C. in Louisiana. He switched fields by receiving a M.S. degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering at UC Berkeley. He worked for 3 years in environmental consulting, receiving his P.E. license in Civil Engineering in California. Returning to UC Berkeley in 2000, he received his PhD in Civil and Environmental Engineering in 2003. He moved to Yale as an assistant professor after graduation. His dissertation received the AEESP Outstanding Doctoral Dissertation Award in 2004. At Yale, he serves as the faculty advisor for the Yale Student Chapter of Engineers without Borders. In 2007, he won a NSF CAREER Award. He moved to Stanford University as an associate professor in 2013.
Employing a fundamental understanding of organic chemical reaction pathways, his research explores links between public health, engineering and sustainability. Topics of current interest include:
Public Health and Emerging Carcinogens: Recent changes to the disinfection processes fundamental to drinking and recreational water safety are creating a host of highly toxic byproducts linked to bladder cancer. We seek to understand how these compounds form so we can adjust the disinfection process to prevent their formation.
Global Warming and Oceanography: Oceanic dissolved organic matter is an important global carbon component, and has important impacts on the net flux of CO2 between the ocean and atmosphere. We seek to understand some of the important abiotic chemical reaction pathways responsible for carbon turnover.
Sustainability and Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs): While PCBs have been banned in the US, we continue to produce a host of structurally similar chemicals. We seem to understand important chemical pathways responsible for POP destruction in the environment, so we can design less persistent and problematic chemicals in the future.
Engineering for Sustainable Wastewater Recycling: The shortage of clean water represents a critical challenge for the next century, and has necessitated the recycling of wastewater. We seek to understand ways of engineer this process in ways to minimize harmful byproduct formation.
Carbon Sequestration: We are evaluating the formation of nitrosamine and nitraminecarcinogens from amine-based carbon capture, as well as techniques to destroy any of these byproducts that form. -
Beverly S. Mitchell, M.D.
George E. Becker Professor of Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsBeverly Mitchell's research relates to the development of new therapies for hematologic malignancies, including leukemias and myelodsyplastic syndromes. She is interested in preclinical proof of principle studies on mechanisms inducing cell death and on metabolic targets involving nucleic acid biosynthesis in malignant cells. She is also interested in the translation of these studies into clinical trials.
