About Stanford ChEM-H
Chemistry, Engineering & Medicine for Human Health
Stanford ChEM-H brings together chemists, engineers, biologists, and clinicians to understand life at a chemical level and apply that knowledge to improving human health.
ChEM-H builds on Stanford’s extraordinary talent in the Schools of Humanities & Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, as well as its proximity to the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, to explore this new frontier at the interface of chemistry and human biology.
