1 Professor of Medicine (Gastroenterology and Hepatology) at the Stanford University Medical Center Medicine - Gastroenterology & Hepatology CLINICAL OFFICES Stanford Gastroenterology and Digestive Health Clinic 450 Broadway St Pav D 2nd Fl Pod 2 and 3 Redwood City, CA Tel (650) Fax (650) Liver Transplant Clinic 300 Pasteur Dr A160 Bio MC 5309 Stanford, CA Tel (650) Fax (650) BIO My research interests include nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and viral hepatitis. I have focused my research to database analysis/outcomes and translational research in these areas. While database analysis has been critical in outlining trends in NAFLD and viral hepatitis epidemiology, translational research has provided insight into disease mechanism and future therapies. I collaborate with several basic science colleagues and act as clinical mentor for young investigators involved in translational research. I am also interested and act as adjunct faculty in biodesign and health policy. I have participated in several clinical trials as a co-investigator.
