To better understand how the brain processes information and generates behavior, researchers in Dr. Liqun Luo's lab have generated the FosTRAP and ArcTRAP mouse strains.

General anesthesia has been administered for over 160 years, however, the medical literature shows that all currently used intravenous anesthetic agents are associated with an entire spectrum of undesirable side effects, most notably cardiovascular instabilities.

A team of Stanford researchers have identified a skeletal stem cell (SSC) along with the protein factors needed to direct differentiation toward bone, cartilage or bone marrow stroma.

Stanford researchers have patented a method for detecting malicious bots, programs that are installed as viruses on a computer and then proceed to execute malicious commands from another remote computer.

Researchers in Prof. Hanlee Ji's laboratory have developed an automated method to capture and directly sequence target DNA with next-generation sequencing.

Researchers in Dr. Karl Deisseroth's lab have created inhibitory channelrhodopsins (ChRs) that allow fast, reversible inhibition of electrical signals in neurons. Optogenetics is a technique used to understand normal and pathological neural circuitry.

Druggability of a protein is its potential to be modulated by drug-like molecules. It is important in the target selection phase. We developed DrugFEATURE to quantify druggability by assessing the microenvironments in potential small-molecule binding sites.

Stanford researchers have identified small molecules that can intercept cancerous or pre-cancerous cells by activating DNA repair in cells damaged by oxidative stress.

The patched gene is a component of the so-called Hedgehog signaling pathway that is known to be involved in the commonest human cancer, basal cell carcinoma, and in brain cancer.

Dr. Brian Zabel and Prof. Eugene Butcher have developed rat monoclonal antibodies (clones BZ2E3 and BZ5B8, rIgG_2aκ isotype) to the mouse chemokine (CC motif) receptor-like 2 (CCRL2) protein.

Dr. Andrea Meredith and Dr. Richard Aldrich have generated a viable mouse knockout KCNMA1, the gene encodes the pore-forming subunit of the BK large conductance calcium-activated potassium channel (also called KCa1.1, SLO1, and MaxiK).

Researchers in Dr. Mark Davis' lab have developed a patented method to perform multi-parametric phenotypic analysis and T cell receptor (TCR) sequencing from single sorted T cells.

Researchers from Dr. Mark Kay's laboratory at Stanford University have merged desirable qualities of multiple natural AAV isolates by an adapted DNA family shuffling technology to create a complex library of hybrid capsids from eight different wild-type viruses.

Researchers in Dr. Michael Lin's lab have developed a fluorescent voltage sensor for non-invasive optical monitoring of electrical events in living cells in vitro and in vivo.

A team of Stanford researchers have identified a novel small molecule that could be used in vivo or ex vivo to enrich for submandibular salivary gland (SMG) stem cell (SC).
