Stanford researchers have identified a biomarker on cartilage precursor cells that can predict which cells will develop into inflammation-resistant and functionally appropriate tissue for autologous transplants to treat osteoarthritis.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have developed a portfolio of microbial opsin proteins that can be used for precise and modular photosensitization components that enable optical control of specific cellular processes.
Researchers in Dr. Karl Deisseroth's lab have developed a selective approach to treat anxiety. Anxiety is characterized by several features that are coordinately regulated by diverse neuronal system outputs.
