Heit neurointerventional research lab

Dr. Heit is an Assistant Professor of Radiology and, by courtesy, of Neurosurgery at Stanford University.

His interest in research was piqued as an undergraduate student at the University of Colorado at Boulder, where he was a member of Tom Cech's lab. He completed his MD and PhD degrees at Stanford University, an internal medicine internship at the Brigham and Women's Hospital, a radiology residency at Massachusetts General Hospital, and a neurointerventional radiology fellowship at Stanford. He has been an attending neurointerventional surgeon and physician scientist at Stanford since 2015.

Ms. Arora is a LSRP in the Heit Lab. She completed her undergraduate degree at the University of Michigan, where she performed neurosciences research that has become her passion. Her research interests in the Heit Lab are focused on murine models of acute ischemic stroke and cutting edge brain microscopy imaging using CLARITY to study developmental cerebral vasculature patterning and vascular changes during ischemic stroke. She is currently applying for MD/PhD programs and is an aspiring physician scientist.

Ms. Kuraitis is a research assistant in the Heit Lab. She completed her undergraduate degree in the biological sciences with an emphasis on neuroscience at the University of Oregon. She has had prior research experience at Stanford University and University of California, San Diego, which included a study to determine if artificial intelligence could be used to screen patients with retinal diseases. Her research interests in the Heit Lab are focused on stroke imaging and predicting clinical outcomes of ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes.
