A new finding by Stanford researchers represents a missing link between two worlds — that of dietary science, and that of molecular and cellular biology.

A Stanford-led pilot study has provided early evidence that an antibody is a safe, effective and rapid food allergy treatment.

Study shows that Apple Watch app can identify heart rhythm irregularities, which can help catch atrial fibrillation.

Researchers at Stanford and UCSF slowed the spread of a type of nonsmall cell lung cancer in mice by neutralizing a single protein that would otherwise set off a chain reaction, causing runaway tumor growth.

Anthracyclines can be effective against breast cancer but often have toxic side effects. Stanford researchers used gene expression levels to identify women most likely to benefit from the drugs, regardless of breast cancer type or stage.
