Angela Primbas, MD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Primary Care and Population Health
BioDr. Angela Primbas is a board-certified, fellowship-trained internal medicine doctor with Stanford Health Care. She is also a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Medicine, Division of Primary Care and Population Health at Stanford University School of Medicine.
As part of Stanford Concierge Medicine, Dr. Primbas provides individualized primary care built on a strong patient-provider relationship. She specializes in geriatric medicine and is experienced in both inpatient and outpatient primary care settings. She is especially interested in providing preventive care and treating health concerns related to healthy aging, longevity, bone health, and postmenopausal aging.
In every aspect of her practice, Dr. Primbas emphasizes compassionate care, taking the time to listen to and understand each person’s needs. She is also passionate about working with medically underserved populations, including individuals in the LGBTQ+ community.
Dr. Primbas studies how health systems can improve their approach and training to serve marginalized groups better. She also focuses on enhancing medical education for students and residents. Dr. Primbas cofounded Stanford Ambulatory Care Excellence, a program that supports internal medicine residents with opportunities to improve the skills needed to provide excellent primary care. She has also created and taught curricula on geriatrics, healthy aging, osteoporosis, and LGBTQ+ health.
Dr. Primbas has published her research in peer-reviewed journals, including AIDS Care, Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, and Journal of Investigative Medicine. She has also written book chapters about LGBTQ+ health in older adults, published in Clinics in Geriatric Medicine and Geriatric Review Syllabus, and on the diagnosis and management of headaches in older patients. As an advocate and collaborator, Dr. Primbas has shared her research and medical expertise around the world, including at meetings of the American Geriatrics Society, the American College of Physicians, and the International Association of Providers of AIDS Care.
Dr. Primbas is a member of the American College of Physicians and American Geriatrics Society. -
Prince Allawadhi
Postdoctoral Scholar, Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition
BioMy research focuses on immune-stromal crosstalk in pancreatic diseases, with an emphasis on how myofibroblasts and macrophages drive inflammation, fibrosis, and multi-organ dysfunction. By integrating patient-derived organoids, zebrafish models, and multi-omics, I aim to unravel the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying pancreatic injury and repair. I am developing cutting-edge zebrafish models of exocrine pancreas disorders to uncover novel immuno-fibrotic pathways and accelerate the identification of translational targets for early diagnosis and therapeutic intervention.

Lance Prince
Philip Sunshine, MD, Professor of Neonatology
BioLawrence (Lance) S. Prince, MD, PhD, is the Philip Sunshine Endowed Professor of Pediatrics at Stanford School of Medicine. Dr. Prince was previously a Professor of Pediatrics and Chief of the Division of Neonatology at the University of California, San Diego and Rady Children’s Hospital, San Diego.
Dr. Prince has a long and distinguished career mentoring clinical and scientific trainees and students, many of whom have gone on to establish their own successful careers as academic physician investigators. As a physician scientist, Dr. Prince leads a basic science laboratory focusing on the mechanisms regulating developmental immunology and lung injury and repair. Dr. Prince received a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry from University of Miami, an MD/PhD with a focus in Cell Biology from University of Alabama at Birmingham, and postdoctoral fellowship, Pediatrics residency, and Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine Fellowship training at the University of Iowa. Before arriving in California, Dr. Prince was an Associate Professor of Pediatrics at Vanderbilt University.
Dr. Prince’s research interests include the molecular and cellular mechanisms controlling lung development and the maturation of the fetal and neonatal immune systems. He has a particular clinical interest in managing and treating neonatal lung diseases, especially bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in babies born extremely preterm. Dr. Prince’s research team focuses primarily on the development of innate immunity during fetal life as it impacts health and disease in preterm infants. The laboratory is investigating how microbes including Group B streptococcus exploit the unique features of neonatal macrophages to avoid immune detection and cause disease, as well as leading a number of clinical and translational investigations.
