Dr. Shah joined Stanford University as an Assistant Professor of Medicine in 2011, was tenured in 2015, and promoted to Professor of Medicine and Biomedical Data Science in 2020. Dr. Shah currently serves as the Chief Data Scientist at Stanford Healthcare and Associate Dean for Health Information and Data Science.
