Kyan Younes, MD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Adult Neurology
BioDr. Younes is a fellowship-trained, board-certified neurologist and a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Neurology at Stanford University School of Medicine.
His areas of expertise include the diagnosis and treatment of Alzheimer’s disease, frontotemporal dementia, primary progressive aphasia, Lewy body dementia, normal pressure hydrocephalus and cognitive and behavioral impairments. For each patient, Dr. Younes develops a personalized plan of care. A plan may include his close collaboration with experts from psychiatry, nursing, pharmacy, genetic counseling, and other specialties. His goal is to ensure that each patient receives care that is both comprehensive and compassionate.
To help lead advances and innovations in his field, Dr. Younes conducts extensive research. He is studying the clinical, neuropsychological, socioemotional, genetic, and pathological features when a patient experiences degeneration of the right anterior temporal lobe area of the brain. This disorder can affect a person’s ability to process emotions and person-specific knowledge.
He also is researching how multimodal brain imaging, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) combined with machine learning can help improve the detection of neurodegenerative diseases. In other research, he has participated in clinical trials of new drug therapies for Alzheimer’s disease.
Dr. Younes has presented research findings at meetings of the American Neurological Association, American Academy of Neurology, and American Psychiatric Association. Topics have included predictors of cognitive performance in dementia.
He has co-authored research articles published in the American Journal of Psychiatry, Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Journal of Neuroimaging, and elsewhere. Subjects of these articles have included guidelines for diagnosing the effects of right anterior temporal lobe degeneration on behavior, treatment for symptoms of encephalitis, and the impact of mild traumatic brain injury on healthy older adults.
Dr. Younes has written chapters on frontotemporal dementia for Psychiatric Clinics as well as the epilepsy, coma, acute ischemic stroke, meningitis and encephalitis chapters for the textbook The Little Black Book of Neurology.
He is a member of the American Academy of Neurology, American Neurological Association, Alzheimer’s Association, and International Society for Frontotemporal Dementias. -
Isabella Young
Casual - Non-Exempt, Psych/General Psychiatry and Psychology (Adult)
BioIsabella “Bella” Young is a Clinical Psychology doctoral student in the PAU–Stanford Consortium, expected to graduate in 2030. She holds dual Bachelor of Science degrees in Psychology and Criminology, with minors in Sociology and Political Science, from the University of Utah, and earned her Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Teachers College, Columbia University.
Bella is committed to integrating empirical research with evidence-based treatment, believing this combination creates the most effective approaches to care. She is a proud alumna of the Perinatal Research on Intergenerational Solutions for Equity (RISE) Laboratory, where she contributed to the Nurse-Family Partnership and Mozambique studies, examining how social inequities become biologically embedded across generations through DNA methylation. She also partnered with Manhattan-based organizations advancing Birthing Justice.
Currently, she continues her work in Columbia’s Maternal & Reproductive Psych Laboratory, where she helped launch a Reproductive Identity study and served as first author on a reproductive identity narrative.
Her research interests focus on perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, reproductive identity, and severe personality pathology in mothers (e.g., borderline personality disorder, postpartum psychosis). Ultimately, Bella aspires to become a clinical psychologist dedicated to bridging research and clinical practice to better support individuals during the perinatal period. -

Marcus Young
U.S. Cultural Policy Fellow
BioMarcus Young 楊墨 makes art in the unexpected, to show that art can be everything and anywhere. He is a behavioral artist making work within mindfulness and learning communities, as well as for the stage, museums, government agencies, and the public realm. His work expands the range of everyday human awareness and expressive behavior. His teaching focuses on individual and collective well-being, learning through participatory artistic experiences, and awakening to an artful life through questioning basic assumptions that no longer serve our society.
Marcus makes art from slow walking, exuberant public dance, living in museums, meditation retreats, fortune cookies, flying kites on Earth Day, and a department of transportation conference room, to name a few. From 2006 to 2015, he was City Artist in St. Paul. His project Everyday Poems for City Sidewalk transformed the city’s sidewalk maintenance program into a publishing entity for poetry, a work that inspired dozens of other cities to do the same. From 2020 to 2022 he was Artist in Residence for the Minnesota Department of Transportation, one of two programs in the nation placing artists in statewide agencies. There, he created the Land Acknowledgment Confluence Room, re-making a top-floor conference room in the State Transportation Building into a space for broadening awareness around land, body, and place. He is the founding artist for Don’t You Feel It Too?—a participatory street dance practice of social and inner-life liberation. Born in Hong Kong, Young graduated from Carleton College in music and the University of Minnesota in theater. He is a recipient of awards from the McKnight, Bush, and Jerome Foundations, and he received the Forecast Public Art Mid-Career Grant, given to one artist a year. He is stage director for Ananya Dance Theatre. He teaches “Art + Life” at the University of Minnesota and Creative Leadership at Minneapolis College of Art & Design. -
Peter A Young
Affiliate, Physician Assistant Studies
BioAs a Visiting Scholar in the Department of Dermatology, I am fortunate to have world-class mentors and colleagues who are committed to a collaborative approach to research. Having a family history of melanoma, I am passionate about investigating skin cancers and other skin conditions. In 2022, I was named Dermatology PA of the Year by the Society of Dermatology Physician Assistants, a national organization with over 4,700 members.
I have co-authored 30 academic publications on a variety of topics including dermatologic surgery, rare skin conditions, allergen content of skin care products, and the state of diversity within the dermatology profession. My writing has appeared in the Journal of the American Medical Association, Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, Cutis, and elsewhere. My work has also been cited in UpToDate- the world’s most widely used evidence-based encyclopedia for medical professionals.
Most importantly, I believe in exercising empathy and compassion, taking the time to listen to patients as if they were family. To me, there is no greater responsibility or privilege than to be trusted with another person’s health. -

Shady Younis
Instructor, Medicine - Immunology & Rheumatology
BioShady Younis, PhD is an instructor at the division of Immunology and Rheumatology at Stanford University. He received his PhD in Medical Sciences from Uppsala University in Sweden. He later joined Dr. William Robinson’s Lab at Stanford University as Wallenberg postdoctoral fellow, where he characterized the pathogenic role of cytotoxic CD8+ T cells in rheumatoid arthritis. His current research aimed at elucidating the underlying triggers of pathogenic B cell responses in a spectrum of autoimmune diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and multiple sclerosis (MS). He uses computational methodologies alongside cutting-edge high-throughput sequencing technologies to characterize the autoreactive B and T cells. The overarching research objective of his research is to unravel the mechanistic roles of Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) reactivation in activating and transforming autoreactive B cells in the development of autoimmunity.
