When initiated soon after menopause, hormone therapy with estradiol prevented degeneration in key brain regions of women who were at heightened dementia risk, according to a new study led by Stanford Neurosciences Institute researchers. Image news | Feb 26 2014 Stanford Report Stanford researchers identify cellular elastic that keeps nerves resilient A team of Stanford Bio-X scientists has found the secret to how nerves withstand the wear and tear of bending joints and moving tissues: an elastic-like protein matrix that keeps them resilient. Image news | Feb 19 2014 Stanford Report Technique developed by Stanford scientists could lead to new treatments for pain A team of Stanford Neuroengineers has developed mice whose sensitivity to pain can be dialed up or down by shining light on their paws. The research could help scientists understand and eventually treat chronic pain in humans.
