Thomas L. Cherpes, DVM, MD
Assistant Professor of Comparative Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly Interests Directs an infectious disease laboratory that performs basic, translational, and clinical research. Laboratory has particular focus on:
1) relationship between exogenous sex steroids on susceptibility to microbial pathogens
2) role of Type 2 immunity in Chlamydia infection
3) developing cellular immunotherapies to combat infectious disease and cancer -
Linda C. Cork, DVM, PhD
Professor of Comparative Medicine, Emerita
Current Research and Scholarly Interests Dr. Linda Cork is Professor Emerita and former department chair. Her research focused on the identification and characterization of animal models of human neurodegenerative diseases. Dr. Cork no longer accepts students for mentoring.

Corinna Darian-Smith, PhD
Associate Professor of Comparative Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly Interests My lab looks at the organization and function of central neural pathways that underlie directed manual behavior. We are specifically interested in how these pathways adapt following injury, and use a combination of approaches in monkeys to identify mechanisms mediating neural reorganization and behavioral recovery.
-
Stephen Felt, DVM, MPH
Professor of Comparative Medicine at the Stanford University Medical Center
Current Research and Scholarly Interests His research interests include infectious diseases, particularly zoonoses, and exploring techniques which promote the health and welfare of laboratory animals.
-
Joseph Garner
Associate Professor of Comparative Medicine and, by courtesy, of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the Stanford University Medical Center
Current Research and Scholarly Interests The medical research community has long recognized that “good well-being is good science”. The lab uses an integrated interdisciplinary approach to explore this interface, while providing tangible deliverables for the well-being of human patients and research animals.

Sherril L. Green, DVM, PhD
Professor of Comparative Medicine at the Stanford University Medical Center
Current Research and Scholarly Interests Research Interests: Xenopus laevis. Husbandry, biology, infectious and parasitic diseases of laboratory Xenopus laevis. Large animal models of disease.
-
Shaul Hestrin, PhD
Professor of Comparative Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly Interests The main interest of my lab is to understand how the properties of neocortical neurons, the circuits they form and the inputs they receive give rise to neuronal activity and behavior. Our approach includes behavioral studies, two-photon calcium imaging, in vivo whole cell recording in behaving animals and optogenetic methods to activate or to silence the activity of cortical neurons.

Monika Huss, DVM, MS
Clinical Assistant Professor, Comparative Medicine
Bio Monika Huss, DVM, MS, received her D.V.M. from Western University of Health Sciences in 2010 and completed her residency training in Laboratory Animal Medicine at Stanford in 2015. Upon completion, she joined the Veterinary Service Center as a clinical veterinarian before becoming a clinical instructor for the Department of Comparative Medicine in 2016. Her interests include animal welfare, pain recognition, anesthesia and analgesia.
-
Claude M. Nagamine, DVM, PhD
Associate Professor of Comparative Medicine at the Stanford University Medical Center
Current Research and Scholarly Interests Mouse models to study murine and human infectious diseases. These colloborative studies include dengue virus, zika virus, adeno-associated virus, coxsackie virus, enterovirus 71, enterohepatic helicobacters, campylobacters, and anaplasma.

Cholawat Pacharinsak, DVM, PhD
Assistant Professor of Comparative Medicine at the Stanford University Medical Center
Bio Cholawat Pacharinsak, DVM, PhD Assistant Professor and Director of Anesthesia, Pain Management, and Surgery, at Stanford University?s Department of Comparative Medicine; he is a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Anesthesia and Analgesia (DACVAA). He received his DVM from Chulalongkorn University, Thailand and trained in an Anesthesiology/Pain Management residency program and received his Master's degree at Washington State University. He completed his PhD in Comparative and Molecular Biosciences from the University of Minnesota. Prior to arriving at Stanford, Dr. Pacharinsak was a faculty member in Anesthesiology and Pain Management at Michigan State University and Purdue University; and served as a Clinical Specialist at UCLA?s David Geffen School of Medicine. His research focuses on understanding the neurobiology of cancer pain, chemotherapeutic-induced peripheral neuropathy, acute surgical pain models, and methods to improve clinical pain management e.g. sustained release analgesics supporting refinement. Research methodology includes electrophysiologic and behavioral techniques.

Jose Vilches-Moure
Assistant Professor of Comparative Medicine at the Stanford University Medical Center
Bio Dr. José G. Vilches-Moure, DVM, PhD, Assistant Professor, received his DVM degree from Purdue University in Indiana in 2007. He completed his residency training in Anatomic Pathology (with emphasis in pathology of laboratory animal species) and his PhD in Comparative Pathology at the University of California-Davis. He joined Stanford in 2015, and is the Director of the Animal Histology Services (AHS). Dr. Vilches-Moure is a diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Pathologists, and his collaborative research interests include cardiac development and pathology, developmental pathology, and refinement of animal models in which to study early cancer detection techniques. His teaching interests include comparative anatomy/histology, general pathology, comparative pathology, and pathology of laboratory animal species.
