The Stanford ChEM-H Building and the Stanford Neurosciences Building are opening this month as part of a new research complex dedicated to improving human health.

The Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute has announced its third round of seed grants to six interdisciplinary teams of researchers who collectively span departments from neurosurgery to music.

Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute partners with the Vice Provost for Graduate Education to award Stanford Interdisciplinary Graduate Fellowships (SIGFs) in the area of neuroscience.

The new institute will focus on guiding artificial intelligence to benefit humanity.

The Stanford Neurosciences Institute has chosen four new projects for its second round of Big Ideas grants, which funds major interdisciplinary research initiatives aimed at driving the next breakthroughs in brain science.

The Institute is pleased to announce that it has selected eight Big Ideas Letters of Intent for development into full proposals.

A pioneering protein chemist at Stanford, Shooter parsed the physiological roles of key brain growth factors. He also hired and nurtured young faculty who would become highly successful scientists.

The Stanford neuroscientist's research focused on the cells in the brain that aren't nerve cells. Collectively called glia, these "other" cells play a central role in sculpting and maintaining the brain's wiring diagram.

We need to collaborate on issues surrounding aging — not just physical health, but also cognitive health and financial security — and that they needed to figure out how to take advantage of the opportunities that longer lives presented.

The Stanford Neurosciences Institute recently awarded its second round of seed grants to six interdisciplinary teams of researchers.

The Stanford Neurosciences Institute has awarded its second round of Seed Grants to six interdisciplinary teams of researchers working to solve problems in neuroscience.

The Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute is elevating three research programs to become the flagship Big Ideas collaborations focusing on brain rejuvenation, neurotechnology and decision-making.

Eleven images representing a broad cross section of neuroscience research have been chosen as finalists in the Stanford Neuroscience Institute’s Art of Neuroscience competition.

Thomas Clandinin, professor of neurobiology, has been appointed the first Shooter Family Professor, created to support a member of the Stanford Neurosciences Institute.

The Stanford Neurosciences Institute awarded their first round of Seed Grants, funding five projects, each of which brings together two or more faculty members to solve problems within the field of neuroscience.

A new Stanford-based center will receive nearly $7.3 million in funding over a five-year period to conduct interdisciplinary research on Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders.
