A generous gift from Mann Charities will support the growth of Stanford's Hub for Artificial Intelligence in Pediatric Medicine, helping recruit a leader to unify AI research efforts across the University and drive implementation of cutting-edge tools at Stanford Medicine Children's Health.

Of all the potential benefits of AI, improving how we diagnose and treat illness may be the most significant. Stanford physician-scientists are already putting it to work, from developing faster pediatric MRIs to predicting complications of premature birth. This gift will accelerate what’s possible.

Motherhood doesn't look one way. Today we're holding space for all of it, the joy, the grief, the longing, the complexity. Every mom and child deserves the best possible health, and that's why we show up every day. Sending so much love to each of you this Mother's Day. 💗

We’re celebrating the incredible nurses at Stanford Medicine Children's Health this ! 💙 Yesterday, our Foundation team treated our nurses to The Last Drip coffee and Summer Scamper swag including stickers, tote bags, sunglasses and more! Thank you for the care, passion, and hope you bring to patients and families at Packard Children's Hospital every single day.

Meet Tyler—football player, brother, and cancer survivor. 🏈💛💪

At 17, Tyler never expected to receive a stage 3 cancer diagnosis. What began as an exciting football career was suddenly derailed by a malignant germ cell tumor and a lifesaving operation to remove the five-pound tumor. Thanks to the expert team at Stanford Medicine Children's Health | Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford, and the generosity of donors like you, Tyler received the extraordinary care he needed.

Today, he's back on the football field and living out dreams that once felt impossibly far away.

Join us on Sunday, June 21 at Summer Scamper to celebrate Tyler and support life-changing care for kids and young adults like him. 💛 Link below to read his full story.
