Discover research happening at the School of Medicine

The CAP directory provides an easy-to-use interface through which people-both inside and outside of the Stanford community-can learn about the far-ranging and innovative research taking place across the School of Medicine. This ever-evolving collection of profiles offers a comprehensive overview of the research interests of faculty and principal investigators, their publications, curricula vitae and more. By connecting researchers, clinicians, students and laypersons with common interests, CAP helps foster the interdisciplinary exchanges and break-through discoveries that will define the 21st century.

A robust research program has long been a defining element of the School of Medicine. CAP presently houses profiles for nearly 1200 researchers from 16 clinical and 11 basic science departments. Every day these individuals delve into unsolved problems in the basic and clinical sciences, engineering and other fields to expand human knowledge. Ongoing collaborations between scientists and clinicians are in turn transforming these discoveries into new technologies, treatments and policies to improve the health of children and adults worldwide.
