Anuja Anand Sathe
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Oncology
Current Research and Scholarly Interests I am interested in understanding the determinants of therapeutic resistance in cancer. I investigate the composition of the tumor microenvironment and adaptive responses to therapy using single-cell RNA sequencing.

Lidia Schapira
Associate Professor of Medicine (Oncology) at the Stanford University Medical Center
Bio I am a medical oncologist focused on breast cancer and cancer survivorship. My career goal is to improve outcomes and experiences of patients and caregivers living with and beyond cancer, and my research and scholarship have contributed to understanding and meeting the needs of the growing population of cancer survivors. My editorial work for the Journal of Clinical Oncology has given me the opportunity to shape the discourse in oncology and as Editor-in-Chief of Cancer.Net I can bring high quality information about cancer to the lay public.

Mohammad Shahrokh Esfahani
Instructor, Medicine - Oncology
Bio My expertise is in developing machine learning tools for high dimensional data. In particular, I develop Bayesian models, where 'prior knowledge', from external sources or inherent to the data set in hand, can be converted into mathematical terms (i.e. prior probabilities). I have recently focused on analyzing genetic and epigenetic signals in cell-free DNA assays. Traditional (computational) methods in cancer genomics are limited when signal to noise ratio is ultra-low which is often the case in cfDNA analyses. Therefore, there is a growing need to develop novel and more powerful methods to overcome this limitation.
