    Dan Edelstein

    William H. Bonsall Professor of French, Professor, by courtesy, of History, of Political Science and Senior Fellow, by courtesy, at the Hoover Institution

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy current research lies in the fields of intellectual history, political thought, and digital humanities (DH). I recently published a book that explores the history of rights from the Wars of Religion to the Age of Revolutions; I'm currently working on a book that explores the intellectual history of revolution; I have a number of papers on Rousseau's political thought underway; and I continue to work on a number of DH projects.

    Eve Edelstein

    Winter CSP Instructor

    BioDr. Edelstein’s research and practice focus on the measurable impact of the built environment on human performance, health, wellbeing. Eve’s ongoing collaboration with a national quality improvement study explores the impact of noise in operating rooms with Stanford, Harvard, Vanderbilt, Pennsylvania, and other members of SPA.

    Eve's recent work with Google and the International WELL Building Institute, explores how the built environment can support the unique abilities of providers and the people they serve to enhance performance and outcomes.

    Dr. Edelstein's clinical service and doctoral research at University College London and the National Hospital for Neurology & Neurosurgery, and at the Harvard MIT hearing sciences lab developed and used electrophysiological techniques to show the brain’s efferent control of cochlear function. Eve's degrees in in Anthropology (University California Berkeley), and Master of Architecture offer a unique background for her contributions as a Board member of the Academy of Neuroscience for Architecture, the AIA College of Fellows Latrobe Prize on circadian design, the Berkeley Teaching Prize on Neuro-Universal Design, and the Calit2 Strategic Opportunities Award for Virtual Visual and Acoustic hospital design for the University of California San Diego.

    Dr. Edelstein co-founded Clinicians for Design and Neuro-Architecture, and contributed to award-winning hospital designs, including master planning through architectural and interior solutions for top-tier academic and medical centers, educational facilities, and building projects in the US, Canada, UK, and China.

    Asiri Ediriwickrema MD, PhD

    Assistant Professor of Medicine (Hematology)

    BioAsiri Ediriwickrema, MD, PhD, is a physician-scientist who leads a systems hematology laboratory at Stanford and directs a clinical practice focused on myelodysplastic neoplasms and clonal hematopoiesis. Our research group studies hematopoiesis—the complex process by which hematopoietic stem cells generate the diverse blood cells essential for health throughout life. Our mission is to understand how individual blood cells change during aging and cancer development, with particular focus on how dysregulation of this process leads to cytopenias and hematologic malignancies.

    We integrate expertise spanning clinical medicine, functional hematology, molecular and cellular biology, genomics, bioinformatics, and machine learning. By combining advanced experimental techniques with computational approaches, we examine blood cell development and function at single-cell resolution. Our work aims to identify the earliest cellular changes in cancer development, map how stem cells interact within their tissue environments, and develop AI-powered tools that predict stem cell behavior and disease progression. Our goal is to translate these efforts into improved diagnostics and precision therapeutic strategies for patients with blood disorders and malignancies.

    Dr. Ediriwickrema earned his undergraduate degree in Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, his MD (Cum Laude) from Yale University, and his PhD from Stanford University. He completed his residency in Internal Medicine and fellowship in Hematology at Stanford, where he also conducted his doctoral and postdoctoral research in the laboratory of Dr. Ravi Majeti. His research identified novel populations of multipotent progenitor cells in normal hematopoiesis and leukemia stem cells in acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
