Mark Kasevich is the William R. Kenan, Jr. Professor of Physics and Applied Physics at Stanford University. He received his B.A. degree (1985) in Physics from Dartmouth College, a B.A. (1987) in ...

Emmanuel Mignot is the Craig Reynolds Professor of Sleep Medicine in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences ta Stanford University and the Director of the Stanford Center for Sleep ...

My primary research concerns defining the principles of the functional organization of the sensory, perceptual, and cognitive processing systems of the human brain. A main focus has been determining ...

As a microbial chemist, I have isolated many microorganisms and discovered useful bioactive substances produced by them. By establishing original screening systems in addition to improving isolation ...

Our work focuses on the two peptides, substance P (SP) and neurotensin, that were isolated and chemically defined in this laboratory. Previous projects that are currently underway relating to the ...

General goals of our research are the development of theory and experiment in coherent magnetic resonance spectroscopy, with applications to fundamental problems in chemical physics and materials ...

The structure and function of ion channels with emphasis on K+ channels is the subject of my research. These integral membrane proteins mediate the passive flow of K+ ions across cell membranes, ...

Yoshihiro Kawaoka heads the Influenza Research Institute of the University of Wisconsin-Madison and is Professor of the Institute of Medical Science of the University of Tokyo. Dr. Kawaoka is a ...

Our laboratory uses x-ray crystallography, in concert with other techniques, to address some of the fundamental problems in biology: how do proteins spontaneously fold into their biologically active ...

Current research is on the causes and principles governing linguistic change and diversity, through the study of change in progress in the speech community; the social and ethnic stratification of ...

Steven G. Louie received his physics Ph.D. from University of California at Berkeley in 1976. After having worked at the IBM Watson Research Center, Bell Labs, and U of Penn, he joined the UC Berkeley ...

Our laboratory studies the molecular basis of force sensing. We found that purified E. coli MscL and MscS ion channel protein can be opened by lipid-bilayer stretch under a patch clamp. This finding ...
