Stanford Medicine research shows healthy cells from bone marrow transplants can transfer mitochondria to unhealthy neighbors, offering a possible treatment for a group of rare genetic diseases.

The award honors outstanding graduate students pursuing careers in business, science, and engineering.

Scientists have viewed the brain as one organ for centuries. A Stanford Medicine-led discovery challenging that view could advance research into ALS, spinal muscular atrophy, and other neurological diseases.

A Stanford-led survey examined harassment, harmful content, and sleep disruption across platforms. Researchers share five takeaways from the responses.

A $25 million grant will allow Stanford University researchers to explore how AI can improve care for people with dementia.

A new system turns research papers into interactive agents that can find connections human researchers might miss.

The ability to study brain disorders that arise before birth has taken a leap forward as a Stanford Medicine team finds a new way to grow human brain tissue outside of the human brain.

Trained on more than 100 million cells from a dozen species, a new model will make it easier to compare cells between species, with potential implications for disease research and cell therapy development.

Lehman helped discover DNA polymerase, co-discovered DNA ligase and fostered the collaborative culture that shaped Stanford Medicine’s Department of Biochemistry.

Through genetic and immunological studies, the Stanford Medicine sleep researcher found that narcolepsy stems from a deficiency of orexin in the brain, opening the door to new sleep therapies.
