Researchers at Stanford have found that applying pressure to macroencapsulation can enhance insulin transport from encapsulated islet beta cells to surrounding tissue and assist in glucose metabolism in type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients.
Genome editing of human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) has the potential to create a new class of medication for the treatment of inherited and acquired genetic diseases of the blood and immune system.
Stanford researchers have identified an appropriate method and dosage for radiotherapy-based noninvasive lung volume reduction to treat severe emphysema.
Many applications in cell therapy, synthetic biology, and gene therapy require extensive cell engineering, often with multiple vectors due to limitations in packaging capacity.
Stanford researchers have developed a method for manufacturing high quality multifunctional soft electronic fibers based on conventional microfabrication techniques.
Researchers at Stanford have created a method to differentiate human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) into >90% pure hematopoietic stem cell (HSC)-like cells, which serve as progenitors to blood and immune cells.
Stanford researchers in the Zhao Lab have developed a mechanical thrombectomy device for Pulmonary Embolism (PE) that mechanically debulks and reduces volume of large clots without causing fragmentation.
Researchers at Stanford University have discovered a way to enhance the effectiveness of CAR-T cell therapeutics through inducing a more memory-like phenotype.
Stanford researchers at the Zhao Lab have designed milli-spinner thrombectomy devices that mechanically debulk clots by safely shredding the clots for fast and complete clot removal.
A new deep-learning system called Atomic Rotationally Equivariant Scorer (ARES) significantly improves the prediction of RNA structures over previous artificial intelligence (AI) models.
The cost of DNA and RNA sequencing have decreased in recent years to aid effective research and clinical applications; however, the labor time and throughput of preparing DNA and RNA sequencing libraries remains a challenge.
