Stanford researchers have created a portable, wearable device for long-term nystagmus tracking to better diagnose episodic vertigo. Current methods utilize head goggles in video nystagmography to monitor eye movement while the patient is in a clinical setting.
Stanford researchers at the Moore Lab have developed an algorithm for on-line, real time post processing of large amounts of neuronal data from high-density, multi-channel electrophysiological recordings to identify which neurons were firing (on-line spike recovery).
Stanford researchers in the McNab lab have developed a marker-less neuro-navigation device that only needs to be setup once during the first transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) session and by tracking the subjects head, automatically achieves the same accurate coil locatio
Researchers in Prof. Mark Schnitzer's laboratory have developed a two-photon scanning microscope for imaging neural activity in a 2x2mm field of view while maintaining a fast scanning rate (~10Hz image update frequency).
Stanford researchers have developed a wirelessly powered, fully internal implant which allows for optogenetic control of neurons throughout the nervous system in mammals, and in particular, mice.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have developed a highly precise, scalable optical system for imaging or controlling thousands of individual neurons in the 3D volume accessible with a single multiphoton fluorescent microscope objective.
Researchers in Dr. Karl Deisseroth's Lab have developed a microscope and methods to allow simultaneous recording of multiple different brain regions in a freely moving and behaving animal. Brain research is growing rapidly.
Stanford researchers at the Shenoy Lab have tested a method that can detect and predict the outcome of brain machine interface (BMI) tasks using motor cortical brain activity.
