Dr Jamie Zeitzer, who studies sleep medicine at Stanford, agrees that we should stop the constant clock-changing, and that morning light is particularly important.

Biomechanical interactions, rather than neurons, control the movements of one of the simplest animals. The discovery offers a glimpse into how animal behavior worked before neurons evolved.

Neuralink, Elon Musk’s brain chip, plans to test this year on human subjects. Wu Tsai Neuro affiliate Paul Nuyujukian discusses what this means for brain implant science?

Zeena Khazendar has been selected as a 2022-23 Newman Civic Fellow by Campus Compact for her work to advance global health access and outcomes.

Neuroscientist Ben Rein never intended to get into science communication. But simple frustration drove him to it after a shopping trip in early April of 2020, he says.

With the publication of the first comprehensive single-cell transcriptional atlas of Drosophila by a global consortium co-led by Wu Tsai Neuro scientists, our understanding of this diminutive scientific heavyweight is reaching new heights.

To understand what causes brain degeneration, Wu Tsai Neuro scientists are looking beyond the brain's neurons and synapses to explore the vast infrastructure that supports them.

MBCT NeuroTech trainee Favour Nerrisse is the Chair of the National Society of Black Engineers.

Wu Tsai Neuro researchers have linked a specific gene known to be associated with ALS with a characteristic of the disease, opening avenues for a targeted therapy.

The Wolf Prize is a prestigious international award given to disciplines in science and art.

The Wu Tsai Neuro affiliates join three other Stanford faculty members named 2022 Sloan Research Fellows.

The award recognizes significant contributions to mentorship and to increasing diversity in STEM fields.

Pointing to an explosion of opioid overdose deaths during the coronavirus pandemic, Stanford researchers called Wednesday for a series of dramatic changes to how governments and society treat those addicted to the drugs, including the ending of incarcerat

The opioid epidemic is projected to claim 1.22 million U.S. lives this decade without new efforts to stem the crisis, according to a report that traces the roots of the problem and offers in-depth solutions.

The grant supports early-career faculty who have the potential to serve as leaders in integrating education and research.

Report warns opioid crisis has a ‘good chance’ of spreading globally as overdose deaths from all drugs increased during the pandemic.
