Near-infrared (NIR) imaging is a valuable research tool that produces quality images with high spatial and temporal resolution through millimeter tissue depths.
The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants during the COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated a need for broad immunization, such as provided by multivalent vaccines.
Polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells often underperform due to high overpotentials caused by sluggish kinetics. Specifically, the Pt-catalyzed oxygen reduction reaction at the cathode renders the energy efficiency well below the thermodynamic limit.
Researchers in the Felsher Lab at Stanford University have developed PD-L1 antibody fragment-conjugated nanoparticles to improve upon existing cancer immunotherapies and extend the range of indications to solid tumors.
Ear infections are a serious condition, especially in children, and represent a $4B market. Otitis media (OM) is when the middle ear becomes inflamed and affects 90% of children worldwide.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have developed a minimally invasive technique for delivering light to living tissue without optical fibers.
Stanford researchers have developed a method to make thin films of metallic glass with high strength, elastic limit, and corrosion resistance. These films are composed of metallic glass nanoparticles with high ductility.
These dual-function nanoparticles improve selectivity of myeloid treatment via identification and reduction of tumor progression in a two-step process: initial accumulation in tumor microenvironments, followed by targeted delivery of a therapeutic payload.
Researchers at Stanford have developed reactive oxygen species (ROS) sensing nanoparticles (NP) that can amplify Raman fingerprint signals and detect ROS changes.
The Hong Neurotechnology Lab at Stanford University developed ultrasound-activated nanoscopic light emitters (mechanoluminescent nanoparticles) that are delivered via the blood stream, unlike conventional optogenetics approaches that require invasive fiber optic implants.
Researchers in Prof. A.C. Matin's laboratory have developed a versatile exosome (extracellular vesicle, "EV") drug delivery platform that can selectively target therapeutic agents to tumors or other tissues that overexpress extracellular receptors.
Researchers at Stanford University and SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have developed a new coating design which makes lithium metal batteries stable and promising for further development.
Stanford researchers have developed a high-performance, ultrafast, thermoresponsive polymer that can act as a circuit breaker to prevent fires in next-generation high-energy-density batteries by rapidly and reversibly turning off when overheated.
