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 Medicine is building a revolutionary cancer research and treatment hub in Redwood City that will bring scientists and doctors under one roof to accelerate breakthrough discoveries. The integrated center aims to transform how cancer care works by connecting cutting-edge research directly to patient treatment.
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 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 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.
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 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.
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.
Scientists at Stanford just received $13 million to use cutting-edge artificial intelligence to uncover the hidden genetic causes of ALS, a devastating disease that currently has no cure. They've already discovered one new gene and hope to find many more targets for future treatments.
Surgical residents are recording hundreds of hours of training videos that never get watched because attending physicians don't have time to review them. Stanford doctors built an AI that watches the footage, spots mistakes, and gives instant feedback without requiring an hour of anyone's time.
Stanford Hospital is letting patients weigh in on new AI tools before they go live, turning everyday people into health tech advisors. One caregiver who helped his wife through a heart transplant is now shaping the future of medical AI.
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.
Millions of children with a misunderstood eating disorder now have hope after Stanford researchers identified two therapies that actually work. The breakthrough could change how families approach what's been wrongly dismissed as "picky eating."
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.
Stanford researchers used brain imaging to identify two biological subtypes of migraine headaches, a breakthrough that could end the guesswork in treating one of the world's leading causes of disability. The discovery may help millions of patients get the right treatment from day one.
Scientists have created the first global map of how genetics and geography shape everything from aging to gut health. The groundbreaking study could transform how doctors treat patients from different backgrounds.
A botanist with 45 years of gardening experience reveals seven medicinal plants that Indian families can grow at home with minimal effort. From memory-boosting Brahmi to healing Neem, these traditional plants offer natural remedies while requiring little maintenance.
A Stanford professor has a solution to generic drug shortages that have plagued American patients for years. Independent lab testing could restore trust and reliability to medicines 90% of Americans depend on.
In China, people pour leftover herbal medicine onto streets so others can walk over it, believing it spreads healing. The custom traces back 1,400 years to a legendary physician who turned discarded remedies into community wellness.
A systems architect in Kerala has spent 15 years transforming his 4-acre farm into a living pharmacy with over 500 rare and common medicinal plants. From herbs that curb sugar cravings to plants that counteract viper venom, Ezekiel Poulose is preserving nature's healing power one sapling at a time.
