Cannabinoid Receptor Activation Correlates with the Proapoptotic Action of the beta(2)-Adrenergic Agonist (R,R ‘)-4-Methoxy-1-Naphthylfenoterol in HepG2 Hepatocarcinoma Cells
We compare the effect of the β2-AR agonists (R,R′)-fenoterol (Fen) and (R,R′)-4-methoxy-1-naphthylfenoterol (MNF) on signaling and cell proliferation in HepG2 hepatocarcinoma cells by using Western blotting and [3H]thymidine incorporation assays.

When and how to authenticate
Extending the traditional authentication paradigm beyond what you have – what you know – what you are, we propose that what you do is a practical way to control access.

Meet Lola, a Virtual Personal Assistant for Banking
We are very excited to publicly announce the Lola project, and the future of Virtual Personal Assistants for banking. This project, which we’ve been working on with BBVA for several years now, is the first application of what we see as the next generation of virtual personal assistant technology beyond Siri.

The Cell’s Fuel Sensor and Cancer
Imagine a pile of a bright white powder weighing about 120 kg—if you’re an average-sized, healthy adult, that powder represents the total amount of a fuel molecule called ATP that you use every day for routine activity; indeed, for life itself. Recent work in SRI’s Cancer Biology Program indicates that an enzyme that regulates ATP—the cell’s fuel…

SRI Licenses and Ventures: the Keys to Our Success
In the last 17 years, SRI has earned more than $200 million in gross royalty and equity value from our licensing and venture portfolio. We have started more than 50 ventures with four IPOs—with a total market capitalization that exceeds $29 billion, and with many successful private company exits, most notably, Siri. We are known for being an engine…

Interactions of rocks with supercritical CO2 and water in enhanced geothermal systems and beyond
As an alternative fluid, supercritical CO2 has been considered for its potential to yield up to 50% more electricity than water, mainly due its lower viscosity and greater ability to permeate the reservoir.
