Being located in the center of Silicon Valley, the worlds most well-known hub for technological innovation, the Program has also established ties with multiple start-up companies that have developed innovative technologies to help patients recover from stroke. The medical innovations developed in our laboratories span a wide array, including immune-modulating therapies, stem-cell therapies, non-invasive brain stimulation (TMS), and medical devices developed by Stanford engineers. Our multi-disciplinary team of scientists is constantly innovating to develop new treatments that will improve gait, arm function and cognition after stroke. With grant funding from the Stanford Neurosciences Institute, the Program has brought together world-renowned scientists from a wide variety of disciplines, including stroke neurology, neurosurgery, neuroscience, mechanical, electrical, and bio-engineering, systems and molecular neuroscience, imaging/radiology, neuroimmunology, and genetics.
Based at Stanford University, the Program is uniquely positioned to bridge the barriers between neuroscience, engineering, and clinical research, to develop new therapies for stroke survivors.
The Stanford Stroke Recovery Program is dedicated to improving the function and quality of life of stroke survivors.
