PARC

We're proud to relaunch the PARC Forum, a nearly 50-year-old Silicon Valley institution that brings together some of the world's most interesting people for discussion about trends in innovation, research, the economy, and technology’s transformative effects on the world. Join us April 4th as SRI's CEO David Parekh sits down with Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times editor and writer David Leonhardt to discuss his new book, Ours Was the Shining Future, and how innovation, ingenuity, and investment fueled America’s technological and economic growth.

If you've ever relied on the weekend to catch up on sleep, have you wondered how it impacts your health? Recent work by SRI's Marie Gombert-Labedens shows that insufficient sleep and recovery sleep influence blood lipid levels, and suggests that more than one weekend of recovery sleep may be necessary for recovery.

An SRI aerogel aims to sponge up CO2 from air and exhaust A new sorbent could remove CO2 from ambient air better than other known materials and has the potential to lower the cost of carbon capture. https://lnkd.in/egXKT-tU #carboncapture

SRI researchers are developing a new precision immunotherapy platform to fight cancer, including solid tumors associated with triple-negative breast cancer. SRI’s Targeted Antigen Loaded Liposomes (TALL) solution aims to enhance and advance immunotherapy by enabling targeted delivery of antigens that most people have already encountered, whether through vaccination or infection. The goals of TALL are improved therapeutic efficacy, reduced side effects, and the availability of immunotherapy to a broader patient population.

Why do women experience more sleep issues in midlife and beyond, especially in around perimenopause and menopause? Lack of quality and quantity of sleep can profoundly impact physical and mental health. In a recent webinar hosted by Let's Talk Menopause, SRI's sleep expert Fiona Baker breaks down the kinds of sleep problems women have, their causes, and how to manage them.

Researchers at PARC—now part of SRI—have developed a technology that could transform how displays, electronics, and materials are built. Using a process that project lead, Eugene Chow, calls software-controlled microassembly, the goal is to lower costs and barriers to advancing manufacturing with a new chiplet-filled ink that can be printed into integrated systems. “Ultimately, microassembly printers have the potential to be a disruptive new manufacturing tool for next generation displays, electronics, and materials. SRI has an amazing breadth of interdisciplinary talent which can help to realize this vision,” says Chow. Read more: https://bit.ly/3EQ3pLN

How do hormonal changes caused by menopause impact sleep? In the upcoming webinar hosted by Xtalks, SRI's sleep expert, Fiona Baker, will discuss what sleep health is and why it's important in the context of women's health, focusing on links between menopause symptoms—such as hot flashes—awakenings, and insomnia.
