Joy Ku
Research Technical Manager, Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance
Current Role at StanfordJoy Ku is focused on biocomputation and the advancement of their use through teaching, science communications, community building, and the promotion of research resource sharing efforts, particularly as related to reproducibility and open-source science.
She is currently Senior Director of the Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance at Stanford (https://humanperformance.stanford.edu) and also leads the education and outreach efforts for the overall Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance, which consists of institutions across the country, including Salk, UC San Diego, the University of Kansas, the University of Oregon, and the Women's Health, Sports & Performance Institute. The Alliance's mission is to discover biological principles to optimize human performance and catalyze innovations in human health.
Dr. Ku is also the Director of Promotions and Didactic Interactions for the NIH-funded Restore Center (https://restore.stanford.edu), as well as the Director of Education and Communications for the Mobilize Center (https://mobilize.stanford.edu), an NIH Biomedical Technology Resource Center. Both Centers provide tools, infrastructure, and training to support the research community. The Mobilize Center's emphasis is on biomechanical modeling and machine learning algorithms to provide new insights into human movement from data sources, such as wearables, video, and medical images. The Restore Center's mission is to advance rehabilitation research using mobile sensor and video technology for real-world assessments of movement and factors affecting movement.
She also manages SimTK (https://simtk.org), a software, model, and data-sharing platform for the biocomputation research community. -

Calvin Kuo
Maureen Lyles D'Ambrogio Professor
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe study cancer biology, intestinal stem cells (ISC), and angiogenesis. We use primary organoid cultures of diverse tissues and tumor biopsies for immunotherapy modeling, oncogene functional screening and stem cell biology. Angiogenesis projects include blood-brain barrier regulation, stroke therapeutics and anti-angiogenic cancer therapy. ISC projects apply organoid culture and ko mice to injury-inducible vs homeostatic stem cells and symmetric division mechanisms.

Christin S Kuo
Assistant Professor of Pediatrics (Pulmonary Medicine)
BioDr. Christin Kuo is a physician-scientist in the Department of Pediatrics. The ultimate goal of her research is to integrate a cellular and molecular understanding of pulmonary neuroendocrine cells (PNECs) to discover new approaches for diagnosing and treating diverse respiratory conditions associated with NE cell dysfunction and excessive proliferation, including neuroendocrine tumors. Abnormal PNECs are found in neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia of infancy (NEHI), pulmonary carcinoids, large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma, and small cell lung cancer. Her innovative approaches to studying the development and molecular diversity of rare but fascinating neurosensory cells with single cell precision, have led to fundamental discoveries. Her lab’s current research aims to apply this knowledge to understanding diverse human pulmonary neuroendocrine cell disorders using interdisciplinary approaches. Dr. Kuo is a Maternal and Child Health Research Institute Faculty Scholar.
