Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have developed a system to enhance optogenetic pumps using one tool to address current limitations in both inhibition and excitation.
Stanford researchers have developed and tested a new method of stably and strongly doping CNTs and graphene using MoOx as a nontoxic, inexpensive, vacuum or solution deposited alternative to strong liquid acids.
Stanford Researchers from the Department of Pediatrics have created a family-based, group behavioral weight control program for overweight and obese children (ages 8-12) and adolescents (ages 13-15) and their parent/guardian support.
Stanford researchers have discovered a way of regulating pressure-driven flow in fluidic passages by utilizing phase change materials to seal fluidic passages.
Stanford researchers have developed an electrically addressable liquid dispenser. This patented technology stores and dispenses scent in hand-held devices.
Stanford researchers have discovered an algorithm that significantly increases the performance of poorly performing brain machine interfaces (BMIs). This novel algorithm has two major innovations.
A team of Stanford engineers have developed a low-cost, easy to fabricate membrane electrode assembly (MEA) that is nano-patterned to increase electrode reaction surface area in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs).
This invention enables depth-of-interaction detection of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) without sacrificing other performance parameters or escalating the cost.
The present invention pertains to an apparatus and method for inverse geometry volume computed tomography medical imaging of a human patient. A plurality of x-ray sources for producing x-ray radiation are used. The gaps between the x-ray sources is less than 20 cm.
Stanford researchers have developed a system and method to increase sampling in x-ray and CT images by deflecting the focal spot of an x-ray tube. This invention achieves focal spot z-wobble by shaping the rotating anode.
Researchers in Prof. Emmanuel Mignot's laboratory developed a mouse monoclonal antibody to the N-terminal end of the hypocretin-1 protein (Hcrt-1, also known as orexin-A).
Researchers in Prof. Zhenan Bao's laboratory have invented a novel semiconducting material containing siloxane-containing side chains. This material demonstrates high charge carrier mobility, as well as air and operational stability in field effect transistor devices.
Dr. Shreyas Vasanawala and collaborators have developed a nonrigid motion correction technique that will allow for motion-free Magnetic Resonance (MR) images to be obtained even during lengthy scans. Motion is a major source of image artifacts for MR studies.
The transplantation of retinal pigment epithelial cells (RPEs) or iris pigment epithelial cells (IPEs) to rescue diseased photoreceptors in the subretinal space is one of the leading experimental therapies for Age-Related Macular Degeneration, the most common form of blindness
