Mark McGovern
Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences (Public Mental Health and Population Sciences) and, by courtesy, of Pediatrics
BioDr. Mark McGovern is a Professor and the Associate Chair of Translation and Implementation Research in the Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences and, by courtesy, the Department of Medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Most people who need health care do not receive it. And of those who do, wide variation exists in access to care and the quality of the care they receive in health care systems, both private and public. Dr. McGovern is a leader in using rigorous methods of implementation science to close these gaps in health care delivery.
His mission is to get the best health care possible to the people who need it the most.
Dr. McGovern's primary focus is the implementation and sustainment of evidence-based interventions and guideline adherent care in public and private health care systems and organizations. Within the hub of the Stanford Center for Dissemination and Implementation (CDI) which he directs, Dr. McGovern is the Principal Investigator (PI) and leads three national implementation research and practice centers: The Center for Dissemination and Implementation At Stanford (C-DIAS); The Research Adoption Support Center (RASC); and, the Mental Health Technology Transfer Center Network Coordinating Center (MHTTC). The 3 centers are federally-funded, respectively by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (P50DA05402), the National Institutes of Health Healing Addiction Long Term (HEAL) initiative (U2CDA057717), and the US Department of Health and Human Services Substance Use and Mental Health Services Administration (H79SM081726). Dr. McGovern is also the PI on a multi-site adaptive implementation trial across a state system of care, which aims to integrate addiction medications for persons with opioid use disorder who are receiving services in specialty or primary care organizations (R01DA052975). In addition, he addresses implementation challenges in federally-qualified health centers (FQHCs) across the State of California, in the Stanford Division of Primary Care and Population Health, and in specialty addiction and mental health treatment organizations nationwide. He leads, facilitates and/or actively engages networks advancing implementation science in health, including the NIDA Clinical Trials Network Translation & Implementation Special Interest Group, the NIDA Clinical Trials Western States Node Translation & Implementation Workgroup, the Stanford University Network for Dissemination & Implementation Research (SUNDIR), the VA Palo Alto HSR&D Center for Innovation to Implementation, and the Stanford Medicine Center for Improvement. He is on the Core Faculty of the National Institute of Mental Health Implementation Research Institute at the Washington University in St. Louis. Dr. McGovern is a collaborator on multiple projects as a co-investigator, consultant, or advisory board member. He is a mentor to numerous individuals across the country and at Stanford, from university undergraduates to mid-career faculty and clinical administrators at academic institutions and health care systems nationwide. -

Charles McGrath
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiological Sciences Laboratory
BioCharles McGrath is a postdoctoral scholar at the Radiological Sciences Laboratory (RSL) at Stanford University, working with Dr. Daniel Ennis on cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging. His research focuses on flow imaging, particularly 4D flow MRI and the quantification of complex hemodynamics and on building open, reproducible simulation tools that support methods development across the cardiovascular MR community.
He earned his Dr.Sc. in Biomedical Engineering from ETH Zurich in 2024, advised by Prof. Sebastian Kozerke, with a thesis on simulation and optimal sequence design for lower-field cardiovascular MRI. During his doctoral work, he developed referenceless 4D flow MRI techniques using radial balanced SSFP at lower field strengths and contributed to widely used open-source tools for cardiovascular MR simulation (CMRsim) and sequence design (CMRseq). He is an active advocate for open science in the MR community and continues to develop and maintain these tools as part of his research practice. He previously received an M.Sc. with distinction in Biomedical Engineering (Medical Physics) jointly from ETH Zurich, and a B.A.Sc. in Engineering Physics from the University of British Columbia. -

Safyer McKenzie-Sampson
Member, Maternal & Child Health Research Institute (MCHRI)
BioSafyer McKenzie-Sampson is an IDEAL Provostial Fellow and instructor within the Department of Pediatrics at Stanford University. Dr. McKenzie-Sampson is a social and perinatal epidemiologist, focused on researching the multi-level impacts of exposure to racism across the life course on the risk of adverse perinatal outcomes in Black communities, with the goal of translating findings into interventions to increase birth justice. Her research portfolio uniquely interrogates the rates of adverse perinatal outcomes through the lens of maternal nativity in the United States which allows for focus on the experiences of Black immigrants. She is currently the principal investigator of the AZANIA study, a mixed methods pilot study which collects data on the pregnancy and childbirth experiences of African immigrants in California. Dr. McKenzie-Sampson received her PhD in Epidemiology and Translational Science from the University of California San Francisco, and in addition to her research, she supports families in the Bay Area as a full-spectrum community doula.

Dr Ross McKerracher
International Security Affairs Fellow, HOOVER RESEARCH
BioRoss McKerracher is serving as the inaugural International Security Affairs Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, while on a one-year leave from his national security role in the Australian Government.
With physics, neuroscience and engineering qualifications, Ross has spent 20 years in the Australian Public Service: in regulatory, policy, national security and senior executive roles. In these roles he’s advised the governments on the strategic, national security, economic and political implications of cyberspace, science and technology issues. He has also built and led institutional capabilities in these areas.
Ross takes an integrated, multidisciplinary approach to help senior decision-makers understand the effect of technology on how states exercise power, and how the exercise of state power affects technological development. He works with a range of government agencies, as well as private sector and academic partners – fusing disciplines such as science (including data science), engineering, economics, history, strategic studies and political science.
At Hoover he will focus on how technology intersects with alliances and strategic competition. More specifically how the trajectory of US–China technological competition will affect the balances of power between the US, China and other nation states. His analysis will include technologies such as AI, quantum technologies, space, semiconductors, biotechnology; and cross-cutting factors such as research strength, talent, supply chains, capital flows and market access. He’s seeking to use quantitative and qualitative methods – harnessing AI tools where feasible.
Ross has a PhD in Physics (nonlinear fibre optics) from the University of Sydney and undergraduate degrees in Electronic Engineering (Honours I) and Science (Physiology and Neuroscience) from the University of Western Australia. -
