Thomas Holden, MD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Oncology
BioDr. Holden is a board-certified, fellowship-trained medical oncologist. He is a Clinical Assistant Professor at Stanford University School of Medicine.
He specializes in care for people with gastrointestinal cancer including those of the colon, rectum, esophagus, liver, pancreas, and stomach. Dr. Holden works closely with patients to prepare personalized, comprehensive, and compassionate care plans that optimize healing and quality of life.
Dr. Holden has conducted research into a wide range of subjects. He co-developed and established a multi-center trial investigating a new treatment regimen for gastric cancer. He has studied use of a fitness tracker to assess activity levels and toxicities in patients with colorectal cancer. He also has written invited commentary on the rapidly advancing field of genetic testing as well as a review on recent updates on the treatment of early-stage rectal cancer.
He has published his research findings in articles in peer-reviewed journals including JAMA, the Journal of Clinical Oncology, Cortex, and elsewhere. He has made poster presentations to his peers at meetings including the ASCO Gastrointestinal Cancers symposium and House Staff Quality Improvement and Patient Safety Conference, a meeting held annually at Thomas Jefferson University.
Dr. Holden has volunteered his time and expertise to help improve access to health care for homeless and underserved populations.
In his free time, he runs, reads, plays the acoustic guitar, and travels. -

Robert Holland
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research focuses on developing self-supervised methods for aiding image-based clinical decision making and accelerating the discovery of new, prognostic biomarkers for disease. I am now advancing these applications by developing foundation models that integrate longitudinal, multimodal medical data from population-scale cohorts.

Leo Hollberg
Professor (Research) of Physics and of Geophysics
BioHow can we make optimal use of quantum systems (atoms, lasers, and electronics) to test fundamental physics principles, enable precision measurements of space-time and when feasible, develop useful devices, sensors, and instruments?
Professor Hollberg’s research objectives include high precision tests of fundamental physics as well as applications of laser physics and technology. This experimental program in laser/atomic physics focuses on high-resolution spectroscopy of laser-cooled and -trapped atoms, non-linear optical coherence effects in atoms, optical frequency combs, optical/microwave atomic clocks, and high sensitivity trace gas detection. Frequently this involves the study of laser noise and methods to circumvent measurement limitations, up to, and beyond, quantum limited optical detection. Technologies and tools utilized include frequency-stabilized lasers and chip-scale atomic devices. Based in the Hansen Experimental Physics Laboratory (HEPL), this research program has strong, synergistic, collaborative connections to the Stanford Center on Position Navigation and Time (SCPNT). Research directions are inspired by experience that deeper understanding of fundamental science is critical and vital in addressing real-world problems, for example in the environment, energy, and navigation. Amazing new technologies and devices enable experiments that test fundamental principles with high precision and sometimes lead to the development of better instruments and sensors. Ultrasensitive optical detection of atoms, monitoring of trace gases, isotopes, and chemicals can impact many fields. Results from well-designed experiments teach us about the “realities” of nature, guide and inform, occasionally produce new discoveries, frequently surprise, and almost always generate new questions and perspectives. -
Marie Hollenhorst, MD, PhD
Member, Maternal & Child Health Research Institute (MCHRI)
BioDr. Hollenhorst is a physician and scientist with expertise in non-malignant hematology, transfusion medicine, and chemical biology. Dr. Hollenhorst values the one-on-one relationships that she forms with her patients, and strives to deliver the highest quality of care for individuals with blood diseases. Her experience caring for patients drives her to ask scientific questions in the laboratory, where she aims to bring a chemical approach to the study of non-malignant blood disease.
Dr. Hollenhorst pursued combined MD and PhD training at Harvard University, where she received a PhD in Chemical Biology under the mentorship of Professor Christopher T Walsh. She subsequently completed a residency in Internal Medicine at Brigham and Women's Hospital, a fellowship in Transfusion Medicine at Harvard Medical School, and a fellowship in Hematology at Stanford.
Dr. Hollenhorst has an interest in the biology of platelets, which are cellular fragments that help the blood to maintain a healthy balance between bleeding and clotting. Working in the laboratory of Professor Carolyn Bertozzi of Stanford Chemistry, Dr. Hollenhorst is studying sugar molecules found on the surface of platelets that are important in controlling their function and lifespan.
Dr. Hollenhorst's research is supported by an NIH K99 Career Pathway to Independence in Blood Science Award for Physician-Scientists, a Stanford Chemistry, Engineering & Medicine for Human Health Physician-Scientist Fellowship, and a National Blood Foundation Early-Career Scientific Research Grant. -

Randall Holmes
Lecturer
BioAfter completing service in the U.S. Army, Dr. Holmes earned his BS in Civil and Environmental Engineering, MS in Earth System Science, and PhD from Stanford's Emmett Interdisciplinary Program in Environment and Resources (E-IPER) focused on sustainable groundwater management in California. As an E-IPER MS Lecturer, Dr. Holmes co-designs and delivers curriculum that bridges theory with practical applications exemplified by the E-IPER MS Capstone Seminar. He creates collaborative learning environments where students develop critical systems-thinking skills through hands-on engagement with complex sustainability challenges. Dr. Holmes' teaching philosophy emphasizes an inclusive, problem-posing education with pedagogical approaches that prepare diverse student populations for both academic success and real-world problem-solving. His interdisciplinary background enables him to connect students with cross-cutting perspectives essential for addressing today's most pressing environmental and resource sustainability issues.

Skylar Holmes
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiology
BioDr. Holmes’ research focuses on understanding the mechanisms behind knee osteoarthritis (KOA) development and creating biomechanically-driven, evidence-based interventions to improve mobility. I aim to develop objective methods to characterize pain in KOA, identifying pain profiles linked to worsening symptoms and functional decline. Utilizing functional MRI, mechanical pain sensitivity tests, and imaging of muscles and the knee joint, Dr. Holmes’ work seeks to clarify disease progression and identify biomarkers to enhance clinical care and reduce the burden of KOA. Dr. Holmes earned her PhD in Kinesiology from the University of Massachusetts Amherst and her MS and BS in Kinesiology from California State University Fullerton.
