Who We Are
The program is under the leadership of Dr. Steven D. Chang and includes clinical experts in the Departments of Neurosurgery and Neurology with leading research scientists in the fields of Genetics, Biochemistry and Bioengineering. Importantly, clinical research within SNIP depends highly on the participation of patients that are seen here at Stanford and are valued partners in our efforts.
