Panelists discussed AI’s energy and regulatory challenges in a two-day workshop focused on regulatory, policy, and financial frameworks critical to advancing technology that prioritizes the planet.
Researchers seeking a way to predict marital happiness found that couples who reported higher satisfaction in their relationship had greater neural synchronization while watching marriage-related scenes in movies.
The move to electric vehicles will result in large costs for generating, transmitting, and storing more power. Shifting current EV charging from home to work and night to day could cut costs and help the grid, according to a new Stanford study.
Stanford researchers have developed an AI model for predicting dangerous particle pollution to help track the American West’s rapidly worsening wildfire smoke. The detailed results show millions of Americans are routinely exposed to pollution at levels rarely seen just a decade ago.
A new method allows scientists to determine all the molecules present in the lysosomes – the cell’s recycling centers – of mice. This could bring new understanding and treatment of neurodegenerative disorders.
Physicians are more likely to experience imposter syndrome compared to other U.S. workers, according to a new study led by Stanford Medicine researchers.
On The Future of Everything, Stanford radio glaciologist Dustin Schroeder explains how mapping the insides of ice sheets can help us understand the implications of climate change.
Stanford Athletics continued its Title IX 50th anniversary celebration with the induction of the first all-female Hall of Fame class in school history.
Michelle Mello, a leading scholar of health law, discusses the new legislation and its impact on Americans’ healthcare – including historic caps on monthly prescription costs for retirees.
Stanford experts discuss how to build equity into planning for and responding to extreme weather events, the economic impacts of storms on communities, and the benefits of nature-based storm defenses.
Electronically sensitive, skin-like membrane can measure changes in tumor size to the hundredth of a millimeter. It represents a new, faster, and more accurate approach to screen cancer drugs.
In this episode of The Future of Everything, Stanford neurosurgery Professor Peter Tass discusses how vibrational therapies can help patients with neurological conditions by helping the neurons break and unlearn synchronicity.
Across Antarctica, some parts of the base of the ice sheet are frozen, while others are thawed. Scientists show that if some currently frozen areas were also to thaw, it could increase ice loss from glaciers that are not currently major sea-level contributors.
Research led by SIEPR’s Gopi Shah Goda estimates that at least 500,000 Americans are not working today because of the lingering consequences of their COVID-19 illnesses.
Pull up a chair, sports fans. The past century’s paradigm – in which student-athletes compete in exchange for an education – is being upended. And where the ball will land is anyone’s guess.
Analysis reveals how restoring relatively narrow forest buffers could substantially improve regional water quality and carbon storage in Costa Rica and elsewhere. Such changes could have outsized benefits for vulnerable populations that rely on rivers for their water supply.
Postdoctoral researcher Matt McCoy studies the evolution of the cephalopod nervous system seeking commonalities with the way vertebrates’ nervous systems evolved, which could shed light on the evolution of intelligence itself.
NASA flight engineer Jessica Watkins, ’10, spoke with STANFORD magazine from aboard the ISS Expedition 67 about finding her path at Stanford Earth (now part of the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability) and what it’s like to sleep in space.
A virtual program that focused on interpersonal skills such as negotiation, influencing coworkers, and networking boosted job satisfaction for women starting off in science and technology jobs.
Stanford Medicine scientists have found a way to imbue immune molecules once thought useless with the ability to put SARS-CoV-2 in a therapeutic headlock it can't wriggle out of.
The Stanford psychiatrist, neuroscientist, and engineer is honored for developing a technology that lets researchers pinpoint the functions – and malfunctions – of specific brain circuits.
