Researchers in Dr. Mark Kay's lab have developed a patented approach to inducing apoptosis that could represent a new strategy against cancer and other diseases.
This bandage-like multi-lead, continuous ECG monitoring device uses new stretchable electrode material developed in the Bao group to accurately and imperceptibly diagnose cardiac arrhythmia.
Stanford researchers at the Prakash Lab have developed Octopi, a low-cost ($250-$500) and reconfigurable autonomous microscopy platform capable of automated slide scanning and correlated bright-field and fluorescence imaging.
Researchers at Stanford have developed a device capable of delivering ultrasonic neuromodulation to defined areas of the brain while simultaneously recording neuronal activity with cell-type specificity.
Researchers at Stanford have developed methods to improve the diagnosis of narcolepsy. Narcolepsy is a disorder in which people experience excessive sleepiness and uncontrollable episodes of falling asleep.
Stanford researchers have developed a molecular diagnostic for Alzheimer's disease (AD) based on their recent discovery of an immunologic signature. While innate inflammation has been implicated in AD, little is known about the role of the adaptive immune response.
Researchers in Dr. Holden Maecker's lab have developed platinum-labeled probes to expand the analytical capacity of mass cytometry instruments. Currently, analytical capacity is limited by the ability to label specific probes with appropriate metal ions.
Stanford researchers have proposed the use of a conductive graphene scaffold (CGS) as a biocompatible scaffold for growth of neural tissues. The high conductivity enables the use of electrical stimulation to control the development of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs).
Researchers at Stanford and their colleagues have developed new antibiotic compounds that could be used to treat staph infection (caused by Staphylococcus aureus) and TB infection (caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis).
Stanford researchers have developed a new class of materials that enable new strategies for the efficient delivery of messenger RNA (mRNA) into cells and animals. The delivery materials are easily prepared (2 steps), stable and readily tuned.
Mice homozygous for the CAG-luc-eGFP L2G85 transgene are viable and fertile, with widespread expression of firefly luciferase and enhanced green fluorescence protein directed by the CAG promoter (human cytomegalovirus immediate early promoter enhancer with chicken beta-actin/r
Stanford researchers have built a sound powered, wireless medical implant. The implant contains a piezoelectric energy receiver, an integrated circuit chip, and a loop antenna.
Stanford researchers have developed mutant Renilla luciferase proteins and reporter gene constructs which modify the physical characteristics of the Renilla luciferase protein for use in biological assays.
A team of Stanford scientists have developed a technique to rapidly convert adult somatic cells directly into functional neuronal cells without the intermediate step of generating iPS cells (induced pluripotent stem cells).
Researchers at Stanford have developed a non-invasive method, based on the identification of novel immune signatures in the blood, for diagnosing Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
