Benjamin Shapero
Ph.D. Student in Earth System Science, admitted Autumn 2020
BioI am a geomicrobiologist and am broadly interested in the connections between protein biochemistry, environmental microbiology, and biogeochemistry. I hail from the surf town of Encinitas near San Diego. I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Southern California (USC), where I majored in both Biological Sciences and Classical Saxophone Performance. At USC I volunteered in a cellular and molecular neuroscience lab, and it was there that I discovered my fascination with proteins. After graduation, I worked in a vaccine design lab at Scripps Research. This research fostered my growing fascination with protein biochemistry and further exposed me to the realm of microbiology. I have since followed my interests in proteins and microbiology, along with my longstanding passion for climate science, to the field of geomicrobiology. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in geomicrobiology at Stanford University in the Earth System Science department.

Mona Sharifi, MD, MPH
Clinical Instructor, Pediatrics - General Pediatrics
BioDr. Mahnoosh (Mona) Sharifi joined the Department of Pediatrics at Stanford in September 2026 and serves as Chief of the Division of General Pediatrics. She is a primary care pediatrician, board certified in both pediatrics and clinical informatics, and a health services researcher and implementation scientist focused on studying the implementation of interventions in primary care and community-based settings to prevent chronic diseases, promote healthy behaviors for all children, and improve outcomes, particularly in childhood obesity. Her research examines how to design, implement, evaluate, and scale interventions across clinical and community settings. She integrates health services research, implementation science, and clinical informatics to evaluate care delivery and conduct pragmatic clinical trials testing scalable strategies that enable clinicians to deliver effective, equitable care across diverse real-world settings. Her overarching aim is to accelerate the translation of evidence into routine practice and to strengthen the role of pediatric primary care in addressing lifelong cardiometabolic risk. Dr. Sharifi is a co-author of the American Academy of Pediatrics’ 2023 clinical practice guidelines on childhood obesity and recently led two successful NIH R01-funded multi-site trials studying the dissemination and implementation of guideline-recommended pediatric obesity care. She currently leads two new NIH-funded pragmatic trials studying the implementation of family-based interventions to prevent and treat obesity in children. Her scholarship encompasses complementary questions that deepen understanding of the field: the acceleration of evidence into practice using EHR-based clinical decision support and other implementation strategies, the cost-]effectiveness of pediatric obesity interventions, the role of neighborhood and structural factors in obesity disparities, and qualitative and mixed-methods investigations of patient and clinician perspectives on care. Since 2010, her research has been continuously supported by the NIH, AHRQ, PCORI, and CDC.
Dr. Sharifi received her B.S. in Economics and Biology from Emory University, her M.D. from Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, and her M.P.H. from the Harvard School of Public Health. She completed her pediatric residency in the Boston Combined Pediatric Residency Program. After formal training in health services, public health, and patient-centered outcomes research as part of the AHRQ T32-funded Harvard-wide Pediatric Health Services Research Fellowship and an K12 scholars’ program at Harvard, she completed a K08 career development award to develop further expertise in the field of implementation science and clinical informatics. She has extensive experience guiding and collaborating with transdisciplinary teams, successfully leading numerous studies that incorporate qualitative, quantitative, mixed-methods, and economic evaluation methodologies.
She prioritizes mentoring and supporting the career development of students, trainees, and junior faculty in her roles as Chief of General Pediatrics at Stanford and Co-Director of the Academic Pediatric Association’s Continuity Research Network (CORNET), a pediatric primary care practice-based research network involving academic primary care practices nationwide. Prior to joining the Stanford faculty, she served as Chief of General Pediatrics at Yale School of Medicine and the inaugural Director of Pediatric Health Services and Implementation Research, Co-Director of the National Clinician Scholars Program at Yale, and Director of the Yale Scholars in Implementation Science, an NIH/NHLBI-funded K12 career development award program to train junior investigators in implementation science. -
Husham Sharifi
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Pulmonary, Allergy & Critical Care Medicine
BioI am a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Division of Pulmonary, Allergy, and Critical Care Medicine in Stanford University School of Medicine. In addition to seeing patients in the intensive care unit (ICU), I focus my research and clinical practice on transplant-related pulmonary fibrosis, which includes fibrotic lung disease after lung transplant or after hematopoietic cell transplant. My research applies advanced computational analysis to clinical metadata and quantitative imaging data, domains that draw on my training in engineering and bioinformatics. In the clinical setting I see patients in a Lung Graft-versus-Host-Disease (GVHD) Clinic for individuals with pulmonary complications after life-saving hematopoietic cell transplant. Our clinic is part of a national Lung GVHD Consortium comprising Stanford, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, University of Michigan, and MD Anderson Cancer Center. In this context I am the site co-Principal Investigator for two national clinical trials through the Lung GVHD Consortium that are funded by the National Institutes of Health. The first trial uses a home spirometry device and monitoring system to study the association of Lung GVHD with respiratory viral infections. The second trial studies the diagnostic and prognostic utility of quantitative CT scans of the chest for Lung GVHD. My goal is to fuse detailed, communicative patient care with the advances of data science in medicine that I research and study.
I lead the chest imaging subgroup of the International Lung GVHD Consensus Project, an international effort convening in Geneva in September 2026 to revise the NIH diagnostic criteria for lung GVHD across the lifespan. Our subgroup is responsible for defining the role of chest imaging within those criteria, spanning the diagnostic requirements for CT, low-dose and novel imaging modalities, quantitative and AI-based image analysis, the relationship between imaging and bronchoscopic diagnosis, and the imaging characteristics of interstitial lung disease after transplant.
