A new technique helps overcome one major barrier: heat.

Blindness is a condition that affects millions of people across the globe. It’s not a nice condition and one that scientists have battled with for a long time to try and find some kind of cure or effective form of treatment. But so far, nothing seems to

A new organic artificial synapse made by Stanford researchers could support computers that better recreate the way the human brain processes information. It could also lead to improvements in brain-machine technologies.

A new Stanford Neurosciences Institute initiative called the NeuroFab, has a specific goal of helping engineers and neuroscientists speak to each other and overcome some of those cultural differences.

New tools for probing the inner workings of neurons developed through an initiative of the Stanford Neurosciences Institute will help scientists understand and heal the brain.

What happens when two Nobel Laureates get talking? They hatch a crazy plan to take teeny tiny diamonds from crude oil and – presto change-o – turn them into a novel way of imaging molecules and structures in the brain.

Over the past decade, a team led by two Stanford-SLAC faculty members has found potential roles for diamondoids in improving electron microscope images, assembling materials and printing circuits on computer chips.
