Stanford scientists have discovered multiple functionally biased ligands that can selectively activate distinct subsets of signaling pathways downstream of the complement 5a receptor.
The Stanford Rapid Online Assessment of Reading (ROAR) is an innovative tool designed to streamline and enhance the way educators, parents, and specialists assess the reading abilities of students.
Researchers at Stanford have found that applying pressure to macroencapsulation can enhance insulin transport from encapsulated islet beta cells to surrounding tissue and assist in glucose metabolism in type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients.
Genome editing of human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) has the potential to create a new class of medication for the treatment of inherited and acquired genetic diseases of the blood and immune system.
Stanford researchers have identified an appropriate method and dosage for radiotherapy-based noninvasive lung volume reduction to treat severe emphysema.
Many applications in cell therapy, synthetic biology, and gene therapy require extensive cell engineering, often with multiple vectors due to limitations in packaging capacity.
Researchers in Prof. Minnie Sarwal's laboratory have discovered a panel of urine protein biomarkers to diagnose acute rejection in patients with kidney transplants. Acute rejection of kidney grafts remains a significant problem in transplantation community.
