Doctors say electronic medical records are one of the biggest sources of burnout. Now researchers are turning the tables. A Stanford study used AI to analyze those same records and spot early warning signs of physician overwork in real time. https://f.mtr.cool/nboczxqyqp

Search the internet for images of professionals, and a pattern quickly appears: women are often portrayed as younger than their male counterparts. New research shows AI models can reflect the same bias. https://f.mtr.cool/swmintstpz

Many shoppers say sustainability matters when choosing products. But standing in the store aisle, other factors often take the lead. Brand familiarity. Ingredients. Package size. What people say they value and what actually ends up in their shopping basket can sometimes look very different. https://f.mtr.cool/kziwnxisly

Messy brain scans are hard to read. Stanford scientists trained an AI to turn them into real-time “movies,” showing thoughts moving through the brain as they happen. A new way to watch the mind in action and explore conditions like depression and brain tumors.

Stanford researchers have developed a deep learning model that transforms overwhelming brain data into clear trajectories, opening new possibilities for understanding thought, emotion, and neurological disease.

Today, we celebrate the contributions, leadership, and achievements of women across our community and around the world.

At Stanford Research Park, we are proud to be part of a community shaped by the talent, ideas, and impact of remarkable women across many fields.

Happy International Women’s Day from Stanford Research Park.

Clicking a button or dragging a slider might seem like a small design choice. But those tiny movements can actually influence how people answer surveys. The way we respond physically may shape the feedback companies and researchers rely on. https://f.mtr.cool/ocyiofdvdu

Why do some scientific findings sound more impressive than others, even when the numbers are the same?
A Stanford study found that people tend to view results as more important when they are described as an increase rather than a decrease. The effect is identical, but the wording changes how big and meaningful the finding feels.

It’s a reminder that the way research is presented can shape how we understand science. https://f.mtr.cool/wjiqtagnft

Twice a year, we change the clocks. But what if it’s our health that pays the price? A new study suggests most Americans would actually be healthier without daylight saving time. Less disruption. Better sleep. Fewer risks. Time to rethink the clock? https://f.mtr.cool/jnxeqdtexa

When schools ban suspensions, does exclusion really stop or just go underground?A study from Stanford University examining public schools in San Francisco found that when formal suspensions are limited, some schools rely more on informal exclusion instead.

If a student is quietly sent home or removed from class without an official record, is that reform? The encouraging part: the research highlights practical solutions. With stronger oversight and better support for educators, discipline policies can protect students without simply shifting the method. Real change is not just about new rules. It is about what happens in practice. https://f.mtr.cool/nptlexxzdb

Creativity took center stage at The Hub earlier this month.
During our Valentine Cookie Decorating workshop, Robin from The Cake Robin guided participants through transforming simple cookies into an elegant “box of chocolates” design. With steady hands and close attention to detail, attendees practiced piping techniques, layering icing, and adding decorative finishes that brought each piece to life.
The atmosphere was focused yet relaxed, as members of the Stanford Research Park community gathered for a hands-on lunch hour activity and enjoyed trying something new. By the end of the session, tables were filled with beautifully decorated cookies, each with its own distinct style.
