Stanford researchers in the Pop Lab have developed a method of making low resistance, good conductivity, temperature tolerant, CMOS processing compatible contacts for 2d semiconductor materials based on transition metal dihalcogenides (TMD's).
Phospholamban (PLN) regulates cardiac contractility and modulates sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ sequestration by inhibiting the dephosphorylated SR Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA).
Stanford researchers at the Snyder Lab have developed a method for simultaneously measuring thousands of proteins, lipids, and metabolites from home-collected 10 ?L blood samples in conjunction with wearable sensors.
Researchers in Dr. Carlos D. Bustamante's lab have developed a phasing algorithm that incorporates sequencing read information, population and individual genotype data to provide more accurate haplotype reconstruction.
Researchers in Carlos Bustamante's lab at Stanford have developed a method for detecting whether an individual is present in a mixture of genomes. It uses only queries about the presence of alleles to make this decision using genome-wide SNP data.
Every year, 1.4 million new cases are reported for colorectal cancer but existing treatments are not effective. This represents an estimated $1 billion market annually in the US.
Fast, accurate and cheap synthesis of ultralong strands of DNA is an essential foundation for synthetic DNA technologies such as cellular programming and engineering.
A team of Stanford engineers has identified first-in-class epidermal growth factor (EGF) mutants with enhanced activity. These mutants can stimulate increased EGF receptor activation at 10-fold lower concentrations than wild-type EGF.
Stanford inventors have developed a framework that performs digitally verifiable photonic matrix-vector multiplication in integrated photonic networks, which may potentially enable energy-efficient hash functions and cryptocurrency mining.
Stanford researchers at the Zhao Lab have developed a wireless, magnetically actuated amphibious origami millirobot that can locomote in narrow spaces and morph their shapes. The researchers have demonstrated that this millirobot can travel on surfaces and through liquid.
Stanford scientists have developed a neuroprotective, adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy vector that expresses a mutant form of HDAC4 or a fragment of HDAC4 with novel applications to retinal and neurologic diseases, including glaucoma and other retinal ganglion cell di
