Instructors
Anesthesiology Scholar and Medical Education Innovator
Dr. Christiane Klinkhardt served as a Visiting Postdoctoral Scholar in the Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine from 2019-2020. After completing her medical education at Paracelsus Medical University in Salzburg, Austria in 2014, she developed expertise in anesthesiology and medical education. During her time at Stanford, she made significant contributions to research on anesthesia practices, particularly through her work on juvenile idiopathic arthritis patients and neuromuscular monitoring. She co-authored important publications including a comprehensive review on anesthesia for patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis in The Open Orthopaedics Journal and developed CME activities focused on neuromuscular monitoring for anesthesia care providers. Currently, she serves as a Resident Physician in Anesthesiology, Critical Care and Pain Medicine at Unfallkrankenhaus in Berlin, Germany, where she continues to advance medical knowledge and practice in anesthesiology.
Distinguished Medical Educator and Anesthesiology Leader
Dr. Pedro Tanaka serves as Clinical Professor in the Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine, where he combines clinical expertise with educational leadership. After completing his medical degree, anesthesiology training, and PhD in clinical investigation in Brazil, he enhanced his academic credentials with a Master's in Academic Medicine from USC and a doctorate in education from the University of Illinois at Chicago. His career progression includes roles as Associate Program Director and inaugural Vice-Chair for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Stanford's Department of Anesthesiology. Currently serving as Associate Designated Institutional Official for Graduate Medical Education and Associate Dean for Academic Affairs, he leverages his expertise in medicine, education, and executive coaching to empower faculty members and advance medical education. His contributions to anesthesiology education have earned him numerous honors, including the H.B. Fairley Teaching Excellence Award and recognition as a Stanford Anesthesia Teaching Scholar.
