David Beach
Professor (Teaching) of Mechanical Engineering, Emeritus
BioBeach teaches courses in the areas of design and manufacturing. Beach and Craig Milroy co-direct the Product Realization Laboratory which provides 1700 students annually with hands on experiences in product definition, conceptual design, detail design, and prototype creation. The PRL offers courses, mentors and tools in support of integrated designing and making. Pedagogically, Beach believes that creation of experience from which students (and teams of students) can interpret and internalize their own conclusions provides an excellent complement to content based teaching. His goal is to add strength in tacit knowledge which derives from the hands-on synthesis of design, prototype building, presentation and criticism.. The resulting judgment and instinct regarding materials, devices, materials transformation processes, and design process complement classical analytical engineering education to create superior engineers.

Shire Beach
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Cardiovascular Medicine
BioDr. Shire Lynn Beach is an Assistant Professor in the Division of Cardiology at Stanford. She completed her undergraduate studies at Stanford before attending medical school at UCSF. She completed her internal medicine residency at UCLA and then returned to Stanford for her general cardiology fellowship, followed by advanced training in interventional echocardiography and cardiac MRI. Dr. Beach is a board-certified cardiologist with specialized expertise in cardiac imaging and additional board certifications in adult echocardiography and cardiac MRI. She is a fellow of the American College of Cardiology and the American Society of Echocardiography. Her clinical and research interests include valvular heart failure, echocardiographic guidance of catheter-based valve interventions, and aortic disorders. Her work has been presented at multiple national and international conferences and has been published in the New England Journal of Medicine and the Journal of the American Heart Association.

Philip Beachy
The Ernest and Amelia Gallo Professor, Professor of Urology, of Developmental Biology and, by courtesy, of Chemical and Systems Biology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsFunction of Hedgehog proteins and other extracellular signals in morphogenesis (pattern formation), in injury repair and regeneration (pattern maintenance). We study how the distribution of such signals is regulated in tissues, how cells perceive and respond to distinct concentrations of signals, and how such signaling pathways arose in evolution. We also study the normal roles of such signals in stem-cell physiology and their abnormal roles in the formation and expansion of cancer stem cells.

Ellie Beam, MD, PhD
Clinical Scholar, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
Postdoctoral Scholar, PsychiatryCurrent Research and Scholarly InterestsIn current research projects, my focus is applying large language models to derive latent speech signatures of depression circuit biotypes. This work aims to identify speech signatures which can deep understanding of brain circuit function and help predict response to interventional treatments, including emerging psychedelic therapies.
