Über diesen Titel

Conversations on science & technology with researchers from the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Network. These conversations were originally live-streamed on Twitter Spaces. The CZ Biohub Network is a group of nonprofit research institutes that bring together scientists, engineers, and physicians with the goal of pursuing grand scientific challenges on 10- to 15-year time horizons. The Biohub Network focuses on understanding underlying mechanisms of disease and developing new technologies that will lead to actionable diagnostics and effective therapies.CZ Biohub Wissenschaft
  • Measuring brain chemistry with nanosensors to advance mental health
    Oct 11 2023

    Markita Landry, CZ Biohub SF Investigator and professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering at UC Berkeley, is developing nanosensors to measure brain chemistry, such as concentrations of neurotransmitters like dopamine and oxytocin. Her aim is to modernize psychiatric treatments: what if depression could be diagnosed with a medical test instead of a questionnaire? 

    In this conversation with Biohub SF President Joe DeRisi, Landry also talks about her latest preprint, in which she and collaborators developed nanosensors made of carbon nanotubes to monitor the release of oxytocin in brain tissues from mice.

  • After 18 years without speaking, science gives stroke patient a voice
    Oct 11 2023

    Edward Chang, a UCSF neurosurgeon and CZ Biohub SF Investigator, talks about his AI-powered breakthrough brain implant, enabling a stroke survivor to speak for the first time in 18 years. Combined with a personalized digital avatar, the system is the first in which either speech or facial expressions have been synthesized from brain signals.

    In convo with CZ Biohub San Francisco President Joe DeRisi on August 30, 2023.
