Sydney X. Lu
Assistant Professor of Medicine (Hematology)
BioSydney Lu is an assistant professor and physician-scientist in the Division of Hematology, Department of Medicine with a broad interest in both normal and abnormal RNA processing in the context of normal physiology and disease states. The laboratory studies translational questions regarding the mechanistic basis of RNA processing abnormalities in malignant blood disorders, their implications for leukemogenesis and cancer biology, as well as resultant therapeutic opportunities.
As a physician, Sydney’s group is particularly focused on dissecting RNA processing abnormalities in primary patient samples and disease-relevant preclinical model systems. Lab members employ a variety of ‘wet-lab’ and computational approaches to study transcriptome abnormalities in (1) states of immune dysfunction, (2) myeloid blood cancers such as myelodysplastic syndromes and acute myeloid leukemia, and (3) lymphoid blood cancers such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Additional projects are focused on novel therapeutics, including multiple targeted agents which modulate RNA processing, for the selective treatment of these diseases.
Sydney’s research is/has been supposed by grant funding from the National Cancer Institute, Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy, Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Aplastic Anemia & Myelodysplastic Syndromes International Foundation, the American Society for Clinical Oncology, the American Society of Hematology, the American Association for Cancer Research, the Paula and Rodger Riney Foundation, the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, The Gabrielles Angel Foundation for Cancer Research, and the Stanford Cancer Institute. -
Wan-Jin Lu
Basic Life Research Scientist, Stem Cell Bio Regenerative Med Institute
BioDr. Wan-Jin Lu is a Research Scientist in Dr. Phil Beachy's lab. Wan-Jin grew up in Taiwan, obtained her B.S. in Zoology at National Taiwan University and completed her PhD in Genetics and Development at UT Southwestern in the lab of Dr. John Abrams. Her Ph.D. research involved the identification of the evolutionary conserved function of the tumor suppressor gene p53 that ensures the quality control of germ cells. She then moved to the Bay Area, where she was a Damon Runyon Postdoctoral Fellow in the Institute of Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine in the Beachy lab. Her work currently focuses on understanding the function of Hedgehog signaling in taste receptor cell homeostasis and delineating the mechanisms of taste receptor regeneration after chemotherapy-induced loss.
Since 2017, she has been collaborating with Tabula Muris And Tabula Sapiens Consortium to investigate taste receptor stem cell renewal and regeneration in the Beachy lab. Her work has received funding support from California Institute of Regenerative Medicine (CIRM), Thomas and Stacey Siebel Foundation, and NIH (R21 and R01). -

Yougeng Lu
Postdoctoral Scholar, SCRDP/ Heart Disease Prevention
BioYougeng Lu (he/him/his) is a NIH T32 Postdoctoral Scholar with the Stanford Prevention Research Center at Stanford School of Medicine. His research focuses on exploring the linkages between exposure to urban nature, such as green space and street trees, and individual's physical activity and mental health. Yougeng received his Ph.D. in Urban Planning and Development from the University of Southern California, where he developed a high spatiotemporal resolution PM2.5 prediction model with low-cost air sensors and studied how people's travel behavior affects their air pollution exposure. He holds an M.Sc. in Urban Planning from University of Washington, Seattle; and a B.Sc. in Geography from Wuhan University, China.

Anna Luan, MD, MS
Clinical Assistant Professor, Surgery - Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
BioDr. Luan is a fellowship-trained plastic and reconstructive surgeon and hand and upper extremity surgeon with Stanford Health Care. She is a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Surgery, Division of Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Luan specializes in diagnosing and treating hand and peripheral nerve disorders. She treats issues such as fractures, instability, soft tissue injuries, degenerative conditions, spasticity, nerve compression, and peripheral nerve injuries. She also treats many other conditions that cause pain or other problems with the hands.
In addition, Dr. Luan has expertise in treating patients with upper and lower extremity amputations. Amputations can result from trauma, tumors, vascular disease, or infection. Dr. Luan specializes in surgeries to help prevent or treat pain and to maximize function in upper and lower extremity amputations. She takes a personalized approach to patient care, considering each individual’s condition, concerns, and goals.
Dr. Luan’s research interests include innovation and translational research, which applies the results of scientific research to treating patients or preventing illness. She also researches clinical outcomes and global surgery. Additionally, Dr. Luan’s research explores how technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and deep learning can be used to improve patient care.
Dr. Luan has published in many peer-reviewed journals, including the Journal of Hand Surgery and Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. She also serves as a reviewer for multiple journals. She has authored textbook chapters and delivered presentations at symposiums and conferences nationally and worldwide.
Dr. Luan is an affiliated faculty member of the Stanford Center for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine and Imaging. The center focuses on responsible innovation and research in medical AI applications. She is also a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, American Association for Hand Surgery, American Society for Surgery of the Hand, and California Society of Plastic Surgeons. -
