Stanford researchers have identified a biomarker on cartilage precursor cells that can predict which cells will develop into inflammation-resistant and functionally appropriate tissue for autologous transplants to treat osteoarthritis.
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is an efficacious therapy for patients with life-threatening leukemias, but its use has been hindered by the limited availability of donors with matching HLA. Graft manipulation by removing ??
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.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have combined optogenetics with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to enable highly specific in vivo analysis of brain circuits.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have used optogenetic tools to develop an animal model for cocaine-modulated behavior modification by precisely targeting defined neural circuit elements.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have used optogenetic tools to develop a precise, specific and inexpensive animal model of impaired memory.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have identified a unifying endophenotype for psychosis that could be used to develop antipsychotic treatments.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have used optogenetic tools to develop an animal model for social dysfunction by precisely targeting defined neural circuit elements.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have used optogenetic tools to develop an animal model for anxiety by precisely identifying, creating, resolving, and targeting defined neural circuit elements.
Temporally precise, noninvasive control of neural circuitry is a long-sought goal of neuroscientists and biomedical engineers. Stanford University researchers in the laboratory of Dr.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have developed a novel system for modulating brain activity with moderate intensity focused ultrasound. In this technique, ultrasound is used to increase the intrinsic firing rate of targeted neurons.
