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.

Lucy Shapiro
Virginia and D. K. Ludwig Professor, Emerita
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsA basic question in developmental biology involves the mechanisms used to generate the three-dimensional organization of a cell from a one-dimensional genetic code. Our goal is to define these mechanisms using both molecular genetics and biochemistry.

Eric S.G. Shaqfeh
Lester Levi Carter Professor and Professor of Mechanical Engineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI have over 25 years experience in theoretical and computational research related to complex fluids following my PhD in 1986. This includes work in suspension mechanics of rigid partlcles (rods), solution mechanics of polymers and most recently suspensions of vesicles, capsules and mixtures of these with rigid particles. My research group is internationally known for pioneering work in all these areas.

Paul Sharek MD, MPH
Professor of Pediatrics (Hospital Medicine) at the Lucile Salter Packard Children's Hospital, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsResearch interests centered on hospital based quality of care improvement, and in particular pediatric patient safety. Areas of recent interest include developing practical tools to more accurately identify adverse medical events and to establish national rates of these adverse events. Additional areas of interest focus on developing the processes and systems to decrease the frequency of adverse drug events and adverse medical events at Children's hospitals in North America

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.
