Bio
I am a physician and researcher who specializes in the management of patients with critical illness. I work clinically in the Intensive Care Units at Stanford Trivalley and Good Samaritan Hospitals. When I'm not in the hospital, I work in the laboratories of Dr. Angela Rogers and Purvesh Khatri and my research focuses on leveraging machine learning on multi-omic data to evaluate the immune response in critical illness. It is striking that despite many years of studying infections, we still treat patients with severe infections the same as we did 30 years ago, with antimicrobials, fluids, and supportive care. The goal of my research is to bring the ideals of precision medicine to critical care. In particular, I am working to better quantify how the immune system responds to infections with the goal of being able to "read" the immune system and treat patients with the medications they need to successfully recover.
