Scientists at Stanford Medicine have developed a single nasal spray vaccine that protects mice against multiple respiratory diseases for months. If successful in humans, it could replace multiple annual shots with one simple spritz.
Scientists at Stanford developed a nasal spray vaccine that primes your lungs to fight nearly any respiratory threat, from viruses to bacteria to allergens. Human trials could begin soon, potentially transforming how we protect ourselves during flu season and future pandemics.
Scientists at Stanford Medicine have developed a revolutionary nasal spray vaccine that protects against multiple respiratory threats at once. In mice, the single spray defended against COVID-19, flu, bacterial pneumonia, and even allergies for months.
Scientists at Stanford Medicine eliminated Type 1 diabetes in mice for six months without insulin shots or immune-suppressing drugs. The breakthrough uses an "immune system reset" that could transform treatment for millions living with autoimmune diseases.
Scientists at Stanford Medicine have developed a breakthrough nasal spray vaccine that protects against multiple respiratory threats at once, from COVID-19 and flu to bacterial infections and even allergies. In mice, the experimental vaccine provided months of broad protection by supercharging the lungs' natural defenses instead of targeting specific pathogens.
Stanford Medicine researchers reversed Type 1 diabetes in mice using a groundbreaking dual transplant that resets the immune system. The animals stayed diabetes-free for six months without insulin or immune suppressing drugs.
Stanford researchers created an AI system that helps scientists write better, kinder peer reviews. The tool analyzed 20,000 reviews and helped reviewers be more specific and professional.
Stanford researchers created a nasal spray vaccine that protected mice from viruses, bacteria, and allergies for months. Human trials could begin soon for what scientists call a "universal vaccine" against respiratory threats.
Scientists developed a nasal spray vaccine that protected mice from COVID, flu, bacteria, and even allergens for months. Unlike typical vaccines, it activates the body's first-line defense system to fight multiple threats at once.
Stanford researchers created the first global map of rare earthquakes that happen deep in Earth's mantle, not just the crust. The breakthrough could unlock secrets about how all earthquakes begin.
Scientists at Stanford created a nasal spray that protected mice from multiple viruses, bacteria, and even common allergens for months. The breakthrough vaccine works differently than traditional shots by activating the body's first line of defense.
Scientists at Stanford Medicine have developed a nasal spray vaccine that protects mice against flu, COVID, allergies, and other respiratory threats for months. If it works in humans, one spray each fall could replace multiple annual shots.
Researchers transformed a hepatitis C medication into a powerful new COVID-19 treatment that works even against virus variants resistant to current therapies. The breakthrough could help patients who no longer respond to existing options.
Stanford researchers discovered that brain activity can forecast which animal images will get people to donate to conservation causes. The breakthrough could help environmental groups create more effective campaigns that save wildlife.
A Stanford grad student tired of swiping created Date Drop, which sends students one thoughtful match per week. Over 5,000 students have signed up, and matches turn into real dates at 10 times the rate of Tinder.
A new searchable database lets anyone compare how 100 major U.S. cities regulate police use of force. After years of buried policies and reform promises, communities can finally see which departments have adopted meaningful changes.
A 117-year-old science institute in India is turning PhD students into entrepreneurs, launching 20 deeptech startups annually and matching Stanford's faculty entrepreneurship rate. The program has already helped create successful space technology companies and is building a model for turning academic research into real-world solutions.
Scientists at Stanford Medicine have found a way to regenerate cartilage by blocking a protein that increases with age. The breakthrough could help millions suffering from joint pain and prevent arthritis in injured athletes.
Stanford and Princeton scientists just launched MedOS, a smart glasses and robot system that acts as a real-time medical co-pilot to help exhausted doctors avoid errors. With over 60% of U.S. physicians reporting burnout, this AI assistant could transform how healthcare workers deliver care.
Zoe Atkin turned her biggest fear into her greatest strength, becoming a world champion in ski halfpipe while studying how the brain processes fear at Stanford. Now she's leading Team GB into the Winter Olympics with a medal-worthy mindset.
