Engineers at the Khuri-Yakub Group have designed a non-surgical alternative for treating epilepsy using ultrasonic technology which can detect, localize, and suppress epileptic seizures in epileptic patients.
Stanford researchers have developed an optical coating that steers infrared and visual light in different paths while suppressing the typical undesired rainbow effect.
Current injectable hydrogel materials have fast erosion and limited tunability of their mechanical properties at different stages of applications, limiting their biomedical applications.
Stanford researchers at the Zhenan Bao Lab have designed a device and method for real-time monitoring of arterial blood flow using a biodegradable, flexible, wireless and battery-free sensor mounted on an artery.
Stanford researchers have developed a new machine learning method for extracting gait parameters, such as cadence, step length, peak knee flexion, and Gait Deviation Index (GDI), from a single video.
Stanford researchers have proposed a novel, in vivo, real-time epifluorescence imaging method in the second near-infrared region using single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs).
Stanford researchers at the Kasevich Lab have prototyped a multi-pass electron microscope that can image nanometer scale samples including electron damage sensitive proteins and other electron dose sensitive nanostructures with low damage.
Dr. Guillem Pratx and colleagues have developed a high-throughput single cell scintillation counting system that can sort cells on the basis of uptake of a small radiolabeled molecule.
Stanford researchers have invented a C-Aperture Nano-Tip which provides a new way to further enhance the optical resolution down to smaller than 15 nm.
A team of Stanford researchers has developed a precisely controlled hydrogel drug delivery system that prevents scarring and promotes wound healing in large, full thickness wounds.
When examining one or higher dimensional data, researchers frequently aim to identify individual subsets (clusters) of objects within the dataset. With high-dimensional data (>3 dimensions), the data become progressively more sparsly distributed in space.
This nanoparticle platform for electric field detection is the first inorganic platform to use both intensity and spectro-ratiometric (relative color change) readout for the determination of local electric fields in vitro, in vivo, and in situ.
Engineers in Prof. Zhenan Bao's lab have developed highly conductive, stretchable composite hydrogel materials that can be used as soft electrodes that match the mechanical properties of a range of biological tissues.
Stanford researchers have patented a hydrogel system which allows for the easy encapsulation of cells and biomolecules without requiring external changes in environmental conditions or exposure to chemical crosslinkers.
Running chemotherapeutic drug screens on tumor biopsies ex vivo has the potential to increase patient survival by personally matching them to the drug which is the most effective against their particular tumor.
