Christian La
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Neurology and Neurological Sciences
Bio Christian received his Bachelor’s Degree at the University of California, Berkeley, where he developed his initial interest in functional brain imaging at the Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute with the D’Esposito Lab. He later attended the University of Wisconsin-Madison for his graduate studies and obtained his Doctorate Degree in the Neurosciences focusing on frequency analysis of the intrinsic low-frequency oscillation of the resting-state in populations of aging and ischemic stroke using rs-fMRI.
Currently, Christian is interested in the characterization of cortical system disruption in Parkinson’s disease population, in terms of functional network interactions and dynamics of the network connectivity. -
Avantika Lal
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Pathology
Current Research and Scholarly Interests My research at Stanford is focused on developing machine learning methods to analyze and integrate large genomic datasets. Currently, I am applying machine learning to the study of cancer evolution, particularly of BRCA+ breast cancers. In past research, I applied high-throughput functional genomics, deep learning and mathematical modeling to study the structure and function of bacterial genomes and identify potential drug targets in malarial parasites.

Tobias Lanz
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Immunology and Rheumatology
Bio Dr. Tobias V. Lanz is a postdoctoral fellow in the laboratory of Prof. William Robinson at the Department of Rheumatology / Immunology at Stanford School of Medicine, with a strong interest in basic and translational neuroimmunology. He studied medicine at the Eberhard Karls University in Tübingen, Germany and at the University College of London and performed his MD thesis at Prof. Michael Platten's laboratory at the Hertie Institute for Clinical Brain Research in Tübingen, Germany. In 2007/2008 he worked as a research scholar in the neuroimmunological laboratory of Prof. Lawrence Steinman at Stanford. After medical school he pursued his scientific and clinical training at the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) and the Department of Neurology at the University Hospital in Heidelberg, Germany. Dr. Lanz's current research focus is on the detection of new antigenic targets of B cells in Multiple Sclerosis.
