Researchers at Stanford have developed methods for controlling CRISPR-based gene editing and gene regulation. CRISPR systems have been developed for gene editing and gene expression regulation in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have developed a portfolio of microbial opsin proteins that can be used for precise and modular photosensitization components that enable optical control of specific cellular processes.
Researchers in Dr. Karl Deisseroth's lab have developed a selective approach to treat anxiety. Anxiety is characterized by several features that are coordinately regulated by diverse neuronal system outputs.
Researchers in Dr. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory at Stanford University have developed a novel suite of genetically-encodable, optically-activated modulators of second messengers (such as cAMP and IP3).
Temporally precise, noninvasive control of neural circuitry is a long-sought goal of neuroscientists and biomedical engineers. Stanford University researchers in the laboratory of Dr.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have used optogenetic tools to develop an animal model for cocaine-modulated behavior modification by precisely targeting defined neural circuit elements.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have used optogenetic tools to develop a precise, specific and inexpensive animal model of impaired memory.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have identified a unifying endophenotype for psychosis that could be used to develop antipsychotic treatments.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have used optogenetic tools to develop an animal model for social dysfunction by precisely targeting defined neural circuit elements.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have used optogenetic tools to develop an animal model for anxiety by precisely identifying, creating, resolving, and targeting defined neural circuit elements.
