A team of Stanford researchers has invented a product that can be used to provide relief to patients with hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), with a particular focus on palmar hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating of the hands).
Bioengineers in Prof. Stephen Quake's laboratory have developed an energy efficient, on-chip valve system for automated, multiplexed fluid control in a portable, low-cost microfluidics devices.
Stanford researchers have designed hydrogels that can be delivered to surgical sites in a patient's body for controlled and sustained release of bacteriophages to treat or prevent bacterial infections.
Researchers at Stanford have developed a magnetophoretic separation device (MSD) for isolating basophils and other rare cell types from a blood sample. The device applies exponentially increasing magnetic field strength to flowing magnetically tagged cells.
The potency of cancer immunotherapies for solid tumors are often diminished by inadequate metabolic reprogramming and resulting immune evasion in cancer.
Researchers in the Mackall lab at Stanford have developed an adoptive cell therapy modification that enhances anti-tumor activity by disrupting a specific group of genes.
Inventors at Stanford developed a method to leverage mass cytometry, a type of flow cytometry utilizing mass spectrometry, for the detection of heavy metals in leukocytes from individuals exposed to heavy metals in elevated air pollution.
Researchers at Stanford University's Curtis Laboratory have used gene expression to categorize the sensitivity and resistance of anthracycline chemotherapy in breast cancer patients with utmost precision.
Researchers at Stanford have developed a method using expressed genetic barcodes to enable simultaneous lineage tracing and single cell profiling. Intratumor heterogeneity fosters tumor evolution which is a key contributor to therapeutic failure and the lethality of cancer.
Researchers at Stanford have leveraged spatial proteomic analysis to identify biomarkers with immediate implications for HER2-positive breast cancer treatment decision making and patient stratification.
