A tiny molecule discovered using AI mimics Ozempic's weight loss effects without the nausea, constipation, or muscle loss. Animal studies show the peptide targets only the brain's appetite center, not the entire digestive system.
A new Stanford facility just made lifesaving cancer treatment accessible to thousands of children who couldn't reach it before. The innovation slashes the size and cost of proton therapy equipment by shrinking a football field into a room.
Expectant parents can now enroll in a groundbreaking trial that treats Fanconi anemia before birth, potentially preventing devastating complications without harsh side effects. Stanford researchers are infusing healthy stem cells from mothers to their babies in the womb.
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 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.
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.
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 researchers discovered a treatment that reverses cartilage loss in aging joints and prevents arthritis from forming after injuries. The breakthrough could one day replace knee and hip surgeries for millions suffering from joint pain.
