Michael Kapiloff
Associate Professor (Research) of Ophthalmology and, by courtesy, of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine)
Current Research and Scholarly Interests Dr. Michael S. Kapiloff is a faculty member in the Departments of Ophthalmology and Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine) and a member of the Stanford Cardiovascular Institute. Although Dr. Kapiloff was at one time a Board-Certified General Pediatrician, he is currently involved in full-time basic science and translational research. His laboratory studies the basic molecular mechanisms underlying the response of the retinal ganglion cell and cardiac myocyte to disease. The longstanding interest of his laboratory is the role in intracellular signal transduction of multimolecular complexes organized by scaffold proteins. Recently, his lab has been involved in the translation of these concepts into new therapies, including the development of new AAV gene therapy biologics for the prevention and treatment of heart failure and for neuroprotection in the eye.

Katherine Kaplan
Clinical Instructor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
Current Research and Scholarly Interests Dr. Kaplan's research interests span four (often overlapping) domains: (1) pathophysiologic aspects of insomnia and hypersomnia in mood disorders, including mechanisms, correlates, and sequelae of these sleep disturbances; (2) behavioral interventions for sleep disturbances in adults and adolescents; (3) circadian and psychosocial factors impacting sleep in adolescence; and (4) machine learning approaches to big data.

Amer Karam
Clinical Associate Professor, Obstetrics & Gynecology - Gynecologic Oncology
Bio Dr. Amer Karam attended medical school at the American University in Beirut. He completed his internship and residency at the Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland, a fellowship in gynecologic oncology at the University of California Los Angeles and a fellowship in breast surgery at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. Dr. Karam has a vested interest in minimally invasive and robotic surgery with a practice centered on this approach for the treatment of patients with gynecologic malignancy and complicated pelvic surgery. He is currently an associate clinical professor at the Stanford Hospital and Clinics and Director of Robotic Surgery and Outreach in the Division of Gynecologic Oncology

Debra Karhson
NX - Professional - Research, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences - Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Child Development
Bio I am interested in understanding the neural mechanisms that underlie cognitive and social functioning heterogeneity in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Impairments in social and cognitive functioning in children with ASD are intrinsically related to the changes in information processing. Moreover, social and cognitive functioning are emergent neural processes that can be manipulated by robust molecular neuromodulators. Social behaviors are specifically related to the neuropeptides, oxytocin (OT) and arginine vasopressin (AVP), while both social and cognitive functioning have been related to the endogenous cannabinoid (or endocannabinoid) system. Therefore, my postdoctoral research (funded by a T32 postdoctoral fellowship from the NIMH) investigates the role of neuromodulators (i.e., social neuropeptides and endocannabinoids) in social functioning in autistic children. My PI-lead efforts are include mass spectrometry method development and treatment-related clinical neurophysiological assessment in autistic children. Individually, my research interests are centered on leveraging a translational neuroscience skill set to interrogate information processing in ASD pathophysiology and understand its relationship with (potential dysregulation of) endocannabinoid signaling.
