Expertise in Immunology and in-depth knowledge of molecular and hematopoeitic stem cell biology.
Postdoctoral Research Fellows
Xiangni Wu
Postdoc Researcher
Focusing on autoimmune disease and cell therapy.
Bio
Xiangni Wu is a postdoc researcher of the Meyer lab at Stanford University. Her work focuses on autoimmune disease and cell therapy.
Before the Meyer lab, she got her MD and PhD degree in China and worked as a resident in Beijing Jishuitan hospital. Since joining the Meyer lab her research has focused on Treg cell immunotherapy with an emphasis on the treatment of graft-versus-host disease as well as immune tolerance induction for transplantation and autoimmunity. She aspires to be a rheumatologist in the future.
Graduate Students
Justin A. Guerrero
Immunology Ph.D. Student
5th Year
Bio
Justin is an uncompromising T cell purist and is obsessed with translational immunology.
Gray Rodriguez
Rotating Immunology Ph.D. Student
1st Year
Bryan Xie
Immunology Ph.D. Student
4th Year
Bio
Bryan Xie is a Ph.D. candidate in the Immunology Program under Stanford Medicine Biosciences. Previously, Bryan graduated with a B.S. in Molecular Biology & Biochemistry from UC Irvine in 2014.
His research in the lab has focused on delineating human invariant natural killer T cells heterogeneity and how these cells are involved in post-hematopoietic stem cell transplant and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Recently, he has been exploring the use of Treg infusion as a prophylaxis for GVHD.
Outside the lab, Bryan enjoys watching A LOT of TV (go Lakers and Ducks!), going to the gym, and playing video games and various sports recreationally.
Brian Smith
Research Assistant
M.S. Candidate in Biology
Bio
Brian Smith is a M.S. student in Biology with a focus on microbes and immunity.
Before the Meyer Lab, he worked in the Fruit Fly Lab at NASA AMES, investigating the virulence of bacteria grown in microgravity. Since joining the Meyer lab his research has focused on iNKT cell characterization and, more recently, immune reconstitution of hematopoietic cell transplant patients. He aspires to be a physician in the future.
Outside the lab, Brian is a former varsity cross country and track runner, also at Stanford. He is passionate about environmental sustainability and mental health advocacy, and loves reading.
