Mehrdad Shamloo
Professor (Research) of Neurosurgery and, by courtesy, of Neurology and Neurological Sciences
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe ultimate goal of the Shamloo laboratory is to rapidly advance our understanding of brain function at the molecular, cellular, circuit and behavioral levels, and to elucidate the pathological process underlying malfunction of the nervous system following injury and neurologic disorders such as stroke, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson’s disease, and autism. We have been focusing on the noradrenergic system and approaches leading to restoration of brain adrenergic signaling in these disorders.

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.

Carla Shatz
Sapp Family Provostial Professor and Professor of Biology and of Neurobiology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe goal of research in the Shatz Laboratory is to discover how brain circuits are tuned up by experience during critical periods of development both before and after birth by elucidating cellular and molecular mechanisms that transform early fetal and neonatal brain circuits into mature connections. To discover mechanistic underpinnings of circuit tuning, the lab has conducted functional screens for genes regulated by neural activity and studied their function for vision, learning and memory.

Gary M. Shaw
Rosemarie Hess Professor and Professor (Research), by courtesy, of Epidemiology and Population Health and of Obstetrics and Gynecology (Maternal Fetal Medicine)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsPrimary research interests include 1) epidemiology of birth defects, 2) gene-environment approaches to perinatal outcomes, and 3) nutrition and reproductive outcomes.

Kevin Shea
Chambers-Okamura Endowed Professor of Pediatric Orthopaedics
BioKevin G. Shea, MD is at Stanford University. He grew up in Montana and California, graduated from the University of Notre Dame, UCLA School of Medicine, and completed his orthopaedic residency at the University of Utah. His advanced training includes pediatric orthopaedics at Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego, AO Fellowship in Bern Switzerland with Dr. Ganz (Hip), Dr. Diego Fernandez (Trauma), and Dr. Hans Staubli (sports), Ilizarov Training in Lecco, Italy. He has done the AOSSM South American Traveling Sports Medicine Fellowship, and education in Russia and former Soviet Bloc countries. Most of his early career was in Boise, Idaho. Dr. Shea is a founding member of the PRISM Society (Pediatric Research in Sports Medicine) and the ROCK (Research in Osteochondritis Dissecans of the Knee) Multi-center Study Group, and the SCORE (Sports Cohort Outcomes Research ) Multi-Center Registry for pediatric sports. He has authored more than 300 scientific papers and chapters. His clinic research interests include cartilage and ligament disorders, using pediatric cadaveric tissue and surgical 3D simulations to develop surgeries and improve outcomes for procedures that avoid damage to growth plates. He has years of experience with performance, quality improvement, value, and he worked extensively with the AAOS Quality/Clinical Practice Guideline Committees. He is one of the POSNA members to launch the POSNA Safe Surgery Program. He is a national quality leader in health care with interests in patient safety, risk reduction, and improving value in health care with clinician integration into supply chain. He is an avid cyclist, trail runner, hiker, and spends as much time outside as possible, with his partner Lonnie and their children Beck and Cooper.
