For the first time, researchers have developed a microscope capable of observing -- and manipulating -- neural activity in the brains of live animals at the scale of a single cell with millisecond ...
A microscope atop an animal's head, scientists have found, provides a better view of how the brain processes visual and other stimuli on the move. The device contains a laser, which can scan the ...
Both for research and medical purposes, researchers have spent decades pushing the limits of microscopy to produce ever deeper and sharper images of brain activity, not only in the cortex but also in ...
Researchers have developed a novel robot microscope system that automatically tracks a freely moving small animal and manipulates its brain activity with 'projection mapping.' Researchers from Osaka ...
How does the brain produce behavior? Studying the brain during behavior is most informative when the animal is free to interact with its environment in any way it chooses. This requires small ...
Lightweight device broadens field of view by an order of magnitude over current state of the art VANCOUVER -- Miniature microscopes attached to the heads of living mice have enabled researchers to ...
DNA microscopy allows scientists to look inside a tissue sample and map active genes, color-coded and in 3D.Credit: Weinstein et al./Cell 2019 (3). Joshua Weinstein spent hours in graduate school ...
BU neuroscientist and collaborators have developed a multidisciplinary approach using a new microscope, artificial intelligence algorithm, and voltage indicators to better measure brain activity. When ...
While the spinal cord is known to play an essential role in relaying pain signals, technology has limited scientists’ understanding of how this process occurs on a cellular level. Despite progress in ...
Simple design: the LEGO microscope (left) and a technical drawing of the instrument. The black eyepiece is at the top, and also visible is the black wheel that is used to adjust the position of the ...
Seeing the small world up close gives students a clearer picture of the larger world around us. Here are the microscopes to help them get started. By John Alexander Published Apr 10, 2024 4:00 PM EDT ...
