With Knight Initiative support, Stanford researchers uncover a biochemical “off-ramp” in ketosis, rewriting our understanding of how ketosis influences metabolism.
Groundbreaking research supported by the Knight Initiative for Brain Resilience at Stanford’s Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute deepens our understanding of how the amino acid taurine may help reduce appetite and prevent obesity.
The Knight Initiative for Brain Resilience will host a "lab meeting style" seminar series to bring together awardees, affiliated professors, and students. Two speakers will discuss their brain resilience research, field experience, and answer questions about their work.
Why do our brains get worse at learning as we get older, and what can we do about it? Institute affiliate Carla Shatz discusses our brain's capacity for change on this podcast episode.
