Researchers at Stanford University have formulated a novel biomaterial suitable for three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting: a homogeneous composite of polycaprolactone (PCL), gelatin, and beta-tricalcium phosphate.
Researchers at Stanford have developed a porous biologics-loaded multimaterial construct, called Hybrid Tissue Engineering Construct (HyTEC), with applications in regenerative medicine and therapeutic delivery.
Background: Researchers at Stanford have discovered a method to create lattice microneedle structures using high resolution continuous liquid interface printing (CLIP) technology.
Stanford scientists have invented a new suite of adaptable hydrogel biomaterials that are optically transparent and injectable for cell encapsulation, tissue engineering, and drug delivery.
Current injectable hydrogel materials have fast erosion and limited tunability of their mechanical properties at different stages of applications, limiting their biomedical applications.
Stanford researchers have proposed a novel, in vivo, real-time epifluorescence imaging method in the second near-infrared region using single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs).
A team of Stanford researchers has developed a precisely controlled hydrogel drug delivery system that prevents scarring and promotes wound healing in large, full thickness wounds.
Stanford researchers have patented a hydrogel system which allows for the easy encapsulation of cells and biomolecules without requiring external changes in environmental conditions or exposure to chemical crosslinkers.
Engineers in Prof. Zhenan Bao's lab have developed highly conductive, stretchable composite hydrogel materials that can be used as soft electrodes that match the mechanical properties of a range of biological tissues.

Stanford researchers at the Bao Lab have designed and fabricated a highly stretchable, tough, and self-healable material with high fatigue resistance applicable for electronic (e-) skin devices.
Stanford researchers at the Airan Lab have developed a new method for robust and spatiotemporally precise non-invasive neuromodulation that could transform both basic and clinical neuroscience.
Researchers at Stanford have developed methods for preparing photo-, and chemical-, cross-linkable three-dimensional matrices for the controlled delivery of bioactive molecules for therapeutic applications.
Richard Zare's lab at Stanford University has developed a ground-breaking drug release system in which injected medication can be controlled externally with excellent spatial, temporal, and dosage control.
