Introduction: Blood cell transfusion plays a vital role in modern medicine–supporting surgery, obstetrics, trauma care, and cancer chemotherapy. In the US alone, more than 12 million red-cell units are consumed annually.
Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is the most common liver disease, leading to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HCC is one of the most common cancers and has a dismal prognosis as currently available medical treatment only improves survival by a few months.
Stanford researchers within the Cui Lab have discovered a promising practical application for grid-scale energy storage by solving poor electronic conductivity in Mn based aqueous batteries, resulting in cycling with an ultrahigh areal loading of 20 mAh cm-2 for over 200 cy
Stanford researchers at the Woo Lab have designed and manufactured a flexible, compact laparoscopic device for knot tying during cardiac, thoracic, and ENT operations.
Stanford researchers have created a system that enables efficient fabrication of complex three-dimensional (3D) nanostructures via triplet-triplet-annihilation upconversion (TTA-UC).
Stanford scientists have developed a novel approach to help patients with short bowel syndrome by using intestinal lengthening. The solution involves injecting a degradable hydrogel into the intestinal wall to narrow the lumen and enable the confinement of a coiled spring.
Researchers in the Murmann Mixed Signal Group have developed a pipelined chip architecture with inverted residual and linear bottlenecks-based networks for energy efficient Machine Learning inference on edge devices.
Summary
Researchers at Stanford have developed a method enabling quantification of intracellular protein levels using oligonucleotide-barcoded antibodies.
Stanford scientists have created software, referred to as Symbolica, for automating model development for multiscale systems that can accelerate the generation of multi-physical models by 10^5 times what can be completed by hand.
Researchers at Stanford University have developed a method which integrates cell barcoding and high-throughput sequencing to quantify tumor growth in genetically engineered mouse models of human cancer (called 'Tuba-seq” for Tumor barcoding coupled with seq
Stanford researchers have developed a cost effective replacement for bipolar membrane (BPM) electrodialysis, called bipolar electrode (BPE) that more efficiently splits water into separate streams of protons and hydroxide ions.
