Researchers at Stanford University have developed a novel kidney stone extraction device that can be used during ureteroscopy to simultaneously remove kidney stone fragments and dust without affecting renal pressure.
Stanford researchers have developed a system that addresses a critical challenge in brain-computer interface (BCI) technology: the need for tedious and lengthy recalibration procedures that disrupt daily use.
Stanford scientists have developed a method that utilizes specialized microbes to capture and convert dilute atmospheric carbon dioxide into reduced organic compounds.
Researchers in the Stanford School of Sustainability have patented a sustainable, cost-effective, scalable subsurface energy storage system with the potential to revolutionize solar thermal energy storage by making solar energy available 24/7 for a wide range of industrial app
Industry, government, and private investment in CO2 capture is growing to address climate change. Without carbon utilization, however, high costs impede large scale capture efforts.
Stanford researchers at the Steven Chu Lab have developed and patented a method and apparatus to optimize speckle suppression in ultrasound imaging, usable for diagnostic purposes. This method uses Fourier-transform limited pulses for spectral compounding.
Researchers in Dr. Michelle Monje-Deisseroth's lab at Stanford have identified therapeutic targets for drug development to limit the spread of high-grade gliomas (HGGs).
Stanford scientists have developed PVSeg, a tool that automatically segments vascular and perivascular compartments in brain MRI data. This innovative tool can identify non-demented individuals at increased risk of developing dementia and accelerated brain atrophy.
Stanford researchers have developed an approach to enable larger superconducting quantum systems that can likely span several refrigerators, necessitating connecting qubits across refrigerators efficiently. Current connectors are limited in its scalability.
Of the 1.4 million first time mothers giving vaginal birth in the United States, approximately 75% will experience tearing of their vagina or perineum.
Stanford scientists have developed a device to distinguish the molecule-specific signatures of diseased exosomes isolated from glioblastoma patients. The device is portable, disposable, and low-cost, enabling point-of-care assessment of disease.
Stanford researchers have developed a predictive biomarker for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence post-treatment that provides key spatial distribution information about cell interaction.
