Serena Hu, MD
Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery and, by courtesy, of Neurosurgery
BioDr. Hu is a board-certified, fellowship-trained orthopaedic spine surgeon. She is professor and vice chair of the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and (by courtesy) Neurosurgery, and chief of the Division of Spine Surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Hu completed her orthopedic surgery residency at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York and her fellowship training in spine and scoliosis surgery at Rancho Los Amigos Rehabilitation Center in Downey, California.
Dr. Hu has extensive experience helping patients with a range of spinal conditions and injuries. She specializes in treating scoliosis (when the spine curves sideways), kyphosis (when the spine is more bent forward than normal) lumbar spine fractures, spondylolisthesis (when a vertebra moves out of place), disc degeneration, and spinal stenosis (spinal canal narrowing). Dr. Hu draws on her expertise to create a customized care plan for each of her patients.
Dr. Hu has been the principal investigator in more than a dozen clinical trials and studies. She has been awarded multiple research grants from the North American Spine Society, Scoliosis Research Society, and the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Her research interests include the effects of preoperative pain medication on surgical outcomes as well as decreasing the risk of complications after spine surgery. She has also studied and tested new technologies that make spine surgery safer and more effective.
She has published more than 145 articles in dozens of peer-reviewed journals, including Global Spine Journal, Journal of Spine Surgery, Spine, and Spine Deformity. She has written about a range of topics, including quality measures in spine surgery, spinal fusion techniques, spine tumor effects on spine stability and lumbar decompression for spinal stenosis. Additionally, Dr. Hu has written more than a dozen book chapters on spinal cord injuries, spine fractures, pediatric kyphosis, spondylolysis (vertebra fracture), and scoliosis.
Dr. Hu has reviewed articles for Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons: A Comprehensive Review, and Spine. She has also served as associate editor for Spine Deformity and deputy editor for Global Spine Journal.
Having delivered hundreds of presentations, papers, and lectures, Dr. Hu is widely considered one of the world’s leading experts in spine surgery. She has been invited to lecture to her colleagues all over the United States and around the world, including in Hong Kong, Canada, Brazil, Australia, Argentina, and Greece.
Dr. Hu is a member of multiple professional organizations, including the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, American Orthopaedic Association, International Society for the Study of the Lumbar Spine, Orthopaedic Research Society, and Scoliosis Research Society.

Wanheng Hu
Postdoctoral Scholar, Philosophy
BioWanheng Hu is a scholar of Science and Technology Studies (STS) whose research examines the epistemic, ethical, and regulatory dimensions of artificial intelligence, with a particular focus on machine learning in medicine. His current book project, Reassembling Expertise: Credible Knowledge and Machine Learning in Medical Imaging, is an ethnographic study of the Chinese medical AI industry. Drawing on multi-sited fieldwork, the project analyzes how, and in what sense, human medical expertise is translated into AI systems and how the credibility of these systems is negotiated across industrial, clinical, and regulatory settings. His broader scholarship engages the social studies of science, medicine, and technology; the sociology of expertise; critical data and algorithm studies; media studies; and public engagement with science.
Wanheng is currently an Embedded Ethics Fellow at Stanford University’s McCoy Family Center for Ethics in Society, in partnership with the Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI) and the Department of Computer Science. He is also an affiliate of the Data & Society Research Institute, a member of the Schwartz Reisman Institute’s AI & Trust Working Group at the University of Toronto, and a member of Cornell University’s Artificial Intelligence, Policy, and Practice (AIPP) initiative. He was previously a Fellow at Harvard Kennedy School’s Program on Science, Technology and Society (2022–23). He holds a Ph.D. in STS with a minor in Media Studies from Cornell University. His research has been supported by the U.S. National Science Foundation, the China Times Cultural Foundation, and Cornell’s Hu Shih Fellowship, among other sources, and has appeared in venues including Public Understanding of Science and The Oxford Handbook of the Sociology of Machine Learning. -

Yang Hu, MD, PhD
Professor of Ophthalmology
On Partial Leave from 01/05/2026 To 07/31/2026Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe ultimate goal of the laboratory is to develop efficient therapeutic strategies to achieve CNS neural repair, through promoting neuroprotection, axon regeneration and functional recovery.
More specifically, we study retinal ganglion cell (RGC) and optic nerve in various optic neuropathies including traumatic, glaucomatous and inflammatory optic nerve injuries to fully understand the molecular mechanisms of CNS neurodegeneration and axon regeneration failure. -
