Philippe Stanier

Philippe Stanier is an Assistant Professor at the T.H. Chan School of Medicine, UMass Chan Medical School, with affiliations in the Department of Emergency Medicine. His research bridges clinical and molecular genetics, focusing on developmental disorders, epigenetics, and craniofacial abnormalities.

• Education: BS in Biology from Andrews University, MBA from UMass Amherst, and MD from Loma Linda University.

Stanier's work explores the genetic basis of neural tube defects, cleft lip/palate, and syndromic conditions like Lenz-Majewski and Burn-McKeown. His studies often utilize mouse models and epigenetic analyses to uncover gene-environment interactions and molecular pathways.

Recent publications highlight collaborations on PPP2R3B duplications in melanoma, SNX14 mutations in ataxia, and HYAL2 gene roles in orofacial clefting. He contributes to understanding genomic imprinting in fetal growth and placental biology.
