Stanford researchers have designed a tunable wedge-based phase mask for 3D super-resolution imaging that can simultaneously determine both the position and rotational mobility of individual light-emitting molecules from a single camera image.
Engineers in Prof. Yi Cui's laboratory have developed a stretchable, stable, high energy density anode to be used in lithium ion batteries that power stretchable electronic devices (e.g., wearable electronics, bendable phones or flexible displays).
Researchers in Prof. Brian Feldman's laboratory have developed a patented drug screen to identify compounds that could potentially treat obesity and metabolic disease by converting cells to calorie-burning brown fat.
Dr. Karl Deisseroth and Dr. Raju Tomer have developed a CLARITY optimized light-sheet microscope (COLM) for rapid, high-resolution imaging of large intact tissue samples.
Summary: Stanford researchers at the Melosh Lab have proposed a non-invasive, high electrode density, high resolution (100 micrometers to 10 nanometers) neural device implantation for electrical stimulation of neural/biological tissues.
Researchers at Stanford have developed methods to identify and treat MYC-driven cancers, including renal cell carcinoma (RCC). RCC is a common, aggressive type of kidney cancer and effective therapeutics are lacking.
Stanford researchers patented a method to design, computationally optimize and fabricate efficient optical devices using semiconducting and dielectric nanostructures.
