Delighted to spend today with the amazing Team FEAST and @rushika_perera @Stanford @UCSF- dissecting the effects of diet, obesity, and GLP1 medicines in pancreatic cancer. @SCIDirector @Ashworth_SF

Had a fun time chatting about peptides and pythons with Australia’s @DavidWoiwod and Monique. Live from the @sunriseon7 Melbourne studio- full interview here: youtu.be/1O_0DJHiGxo?is=aAYi…

Reporting out today- Phase 1 clinical data, oral Lac-Phe mimetic ENV-308 from @enveda. No safety signals (good) and some changes in other biomarkers including leptin (!)… Phase 2 trials planned in for weight maintenance. @statnews statnews.com/2026/08/18/enve…

A pill that mimics exercise? Early results on drug designed to maintain both weight loss and muscle...

Colorado biotech Enveda reports preliminary results on a drug to help people maintain weight loss after GLP-1 use. Just don't call it exercise in a pill.

Very proud of our new postdoc Zhuoran Li, who has been awarded a @DamonRunyon Fellowship! Zhuoran will discover new brain-derived peptides and determine how they regulate appetite and cancer metabolism. @StanfordPath @StanfordDRC damonrunyon.org/discovery/da…

Peptides peptides peptides… Seems like everybody wants to inject something these days. But what is the state of the science? @SvenssonLab and I share our thoughts in this article from Rachel Tompa @StanfordMed @StanfordPath @Stanford_ChEMH med.stanford.edu/news/insigh…

Peptides talk is everywhere: But what does the science say?

Stanford Health Care delivers the highest levels of care and compassion. SHC treats cancer, heart disease, brain disorders, primary care issues, and many more.

For decades, we’ve known that the ENPP1 K173Q variant raises type 2 diabetes risk, but not why. New work from @SongnanW in @li_lingyin's lab, in collaboration with @SvenssonLab, shows that this variant may promote metabolic dysfunction in brown adipose tissue.

This is so cool! Congrats Isha and team!

Replying to @ishahjain
Instead of starting with a disease and searching for a drug…we started with a therapy (individual vitamin) and asked: which genetic diseases might they rescue? Essentially a new flavor of nutrigenomics.

Today we share a technical report demonstrating how our drug design engine achieves a step-change in accuracy for predicting biomolecular structures, more than doubling the performance of AlphaFold 3 on key benchmarks and unlocking rational drug design even for examples it has never seen before. Head to the comments to read our blog.
