Michelle L. James
Associate Professor of Radiology (Molecular Imaging Program at Stanford) and of Neurology and Neurological Sciences (Neurology Research)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe primary aim of my lab is to improve the diagnosis and treatment of brain diseases by developing translational molecular imaging agents for visualizing neuroimmune interactions underlying conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, multiple sclerosis, and stroke.

Lindsay Elise Jamieson
Affiliate, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
BioLindsay Jamieson is a doctoral-level trainee whose work focuses on neuropsychological assessment and cognitive functioning across development. She contributes to research in the BRUNO Lab at Stanford, assisting with studies examining cognition, aging trajectories, and sex-related differences in Down syndrome.
Her broader interests include neurodevelopmental conditions, brain injury, and how biological and environmental factors shape cognitive outcomes. Lindsay also brings prior experience supporting individuals with developmental disabilities through adaptive riding and equine-assisted programs. She aims to build a career centered on thoughtful, evidence-based assessment and collaborative clinical care. -
Mathangi Janakiraman
Postdoctoral Scholar, Gastroenterology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI study how the gut ecosystem, gut function, and neuroimmune interactions change during aging and in diseases like Alzheimer’s. I investigate how dietary interventions, including fermented foods and ketones, modulate gut cells and physiology. My goal is to reveal mechanisms through which diet supports healthy aging and to advance dietary strategies for age‑associated diseases.

Martin Jander
Overseas Studies - Berlin, Bing Overseas Studies
BioDr. Jander was born in Freiburg im Breisgau. During his studies of German, History, Sociology, and Political Science in the late 1970s and early 1980s in West-Berlin, he established contact with several opposition members in the GDR and followed their activities. Since then, the topic of opposition in the GDR has been one of his main research fields. Martin Jander's second important field of research is German left-wing terrorism and its international connections. In both fields of research, Jander is particularly interested in references to Antisemitism. Together with Anetta Kahane, he developed the concept of an "unfinished republic" to describe the current Federal Republic of Germany (M. Jander, A. Kahane: Gefährdungen demokratischer Kultur: Die unvollendete Republik, 2020). The republic refuses to understand itself to the full extent as an immigration society. It also refuses to see itself to the full extent as a successor society to National Socialism.

Jlateh Vincent Jappah
Ph.D. Student in Health Policy, admitted Autumn 2021
Master of Arts Student in Economics, admitted Spring 2024BioJlateh Vincent Jappah is a PhD Candidate in Health Policy (Health Economics) at Stanford. His research interests intersect between methods that enhance access to the social determinants of health and the provision of appropriate and timely healthcare services, with the aim of reducing avoidable morbidity and mortality and improving overall health and well-being, especially for underserved and vulnerable populations.
Jappah contends that although health insurance and access to healthcare services are important elements in the health production function, other structural and socio-economic factors collude to either foster or erode health. As such, he has a keen interest in public policy, economics, medicine, global public health, maternal and child health, and a curiosity to understand those socio-political and institutional forces that shape health and well-being. He is also interested in machine learning and artificial intelligence in healthcare.
In addition to the United States, Jappah has lived and worked in several countries in Africa, Asia, and Europe.
He is bi-lingual (English and Russian). -
Ann Jaquith
Lecturer, Initiative Program Staff
BioDr. Jaquith is the director of the Policy, Organization, and Leadership Studies (POLS) master’s program and lecturer at the Stanford Graduate School of Education. Through her scholarship and applied research, she is particularly interested in how (and under what conditions) diverse actors in the U.S. educational system can work together to bring about positive change, especially for marginalized and disadvantaged youth. She is the author of “How to Create the Conditions for Learning: Continuous Improvement in Classrooms, Schools, and Districts” (Harvard Education Press, 2017). Her work has also appeared in The Foundation Review, Principal Magazine, Educational Forum, Educational Leadership, Journal of Staff Development, The Handbook of Professional Development, PK-12: Successful Models and Practices, and Second International Handbook of Educational Change.

Safwan Jaradeh, MD
Professor of Neurology and Neurological Sciences (Adult Neurology) and, by courtesy, of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsClinical interests include autonomic disorders, small fiber neuropathies and the development of effective methods of testing and treating these disorders. Prior work has focused on small fiber painful and autonomic neuropathies; syndromes of orthostatic intolerance and syncope; gastrointestinal motility dysfunction; cyclic vomiting; protacted Gastroesophageal Reflux; non-allergic rhinitis syndromes; and the relationship between the autonomic nervous system and normal or abnormal sleep. Additional areas of interest include the neurology of phonation and swallowing disorders, and peripheral nerve injury and repair.

Thomas Jaramillo
Professor of Chemical Engineering, of Energy Science Engineering, of Photon Science and Senior Fellow at the Precourt Institute for Energy
BioRecent years have seen unprecedented motivation for the emergence of new energy technologies. Global dependence on fossil fuels, however, will persist until alternate technologies can compete economically. We must develop means to produce energy (or energy carriers) from renewable sources and then convert them to work as efficiently and cleanly as possible. Catalysis is energy conversion, and the Jaramillo laboratory focuses on fundamental catalytic processes occurring on solid-state surfaces in both the production and consumption of energy. Chemical-to-electrical and electrical-to-chemical energy conversion are at the core of the research. Nanoparticles, metals, alloys, sulfides, nitrides, carbides, phosphides, oxides, and biomimetic organo-metallic complexes comprise the toolkit of materials that can help change the energy landscape. Tailoring catalyst surfaces to fit the chemistry is our primary challenge.
