    SCHOOL/UNIT DESCRIPTION:
    Sarafan ChEM-H is a new interdisciplinary institute focused on connecting Chemistry, Engineering, and Medicine for Human Health. The institute was founded as a joint venture of the Schools of Medicine, Engineering, and Humanities and Sciences. The proximity of world-class biologists, chemists, engineers, and clinicians at Stanford presents a unique opportunity to study human biology at a molecular level, to translate this knowledge into groundbreaking products and services that promote healthy living, and to educate a new cadre of "physician-scientist-engineers" who will lead a rapidly evolving industry. The institute's Knowledge Centers serve as shared laboratories where trainees from diverse disciplines in science, engineering and medicine pursue projects under the mentorship of the center's Directors, thereby gaining hands-on skills in high-throughput screening, medicinal chemistry, metabolomics, protein chemistry, and structural biology.

    The Innovative Medicines Accelerator (IMA) emerged out of Stanford's Long Range Vision, and seeks to accelerate the translation of Stanford research discoveries into new medicines while expanding our knowledge of human biology. Part of the Drug and Vaccine Prototyping arm of the IMA, the Cell and Gene Therapies module and the Protein Engineering module focus on supporting novel therapeutic development in these research areas through annual seed grant opportunities and internal and external partnerships.

    Our VPDoR Diversity Journey:

  • We create a hub of innovation through the power of diversity of disciplines and people.
