The inventors have identified and developed an archaeal light-driven chloride pump (NpHR) from Natronomonas pharaonis for temporally precise optical inhibition of neural activity. NpHR allows either knockout of single action potentials, or sustained blockade of spiking.
Researchers in Dr. Karl Deisseroth's lab have developed a selective approach to treat anxiety. Anxiety is characterized by several features that are coordinately regulated by diverse neuronal system outputs.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Diesseroth's laboratory have discovered a Dopamine receptor type 2 specific promoter (D2SP) that can be used to transfect, identify and isolate Dopamine R2 (D2R)-expressing cells.
Stanford researchers have developed an efficient, virtual keyboard to facilitate independence and faster communication for those who use assistive technology.
Stanford researchers have developed a simple optical device for low-power, active light tuning. The device tunes the color of light across the visible spectrum and at select wavelengths by electrical biasing an array of micron sized pixels or nanowires.
Researchers in the Fan group have developed a method for epitaxial growth of double heterojunction semiconductor diodes capable of suppressing parasitic non-radiative recombination effects.
Stanford researchers have developed a portable hybrid frame-event based near eye gaze tracking system that has a superior speed while using a lower data bandwidth. They demonstrated real time results for gaze-tracking.
Stanford researchers have patented an automated computer management system which can virtualize computers as well as the network of virtual machines to automatically and easily manage a large number of computers.
Stanford researchers have created an integrated cooling textile (called i-Cool) with an unique functional design for personal perspiration management (PPM).
The Ji lab has developed a sequencing assay to provide genetic diversity information of microsatellite and chromosomal instability (MSI) in colorectal cancer. MSI arises from a loss of DNA mismatch repair in colorectal cancers, making them genetically diverse.
