Research news | Aug 2 2017 Stanford Medicine - Scope Correcting a forebrain signaling imbalance reverses autistic symptoms in mice A new study, conducted by Stanford psychiatrist, neuroscientist and inventor Karl Deisseroth, MD, PhD, and colleagues, suggests that key features of autism reflect an imbalance in signaling from two kinds of neurons in a portion of the forebrain. Research news | Jul 31 2017 Stanford Medicine - Scope Blood test: Scientists crack code of chronic fatigue syndrome’s inflammatory und... A new study led by Stanford chronic fatigue syndrome expert Jose Montoya, MD, has linked chronic fatigue syndrome to variations in 17 immune-system signaling proteins, or cytokines, whose concentrations in the blood correlate with the disease’s severity. Image Research news | Jul 31 2017 Stanford Medicine - News Center Researchers identify biomarkers associated with chronic fatigue syndrome severit... Stanford investigators used high-throughput analysis to link inflammation to chronic fatigue syndrome, a difficult-to-diagnose disease with no known cure.

In the wild or in the lab, they attack other male mice even if plenty of room, food and females are available.

But a new Stanford study shows that the male’s susceptibility to this activation depends on whether it has been housed with other mice or in isolation.
