Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering Yi Xue works on 2P-FOCUS, a new two-photon microscopy system, in her lab. The system promises novel insights into biological features that were once only ...

Intravital brain imaging is a valuable tool for studying neurons, glial cells, and their surroundings in living animals. It allows the investigation of neurological illnesses, therapeutic efficacy, ...

In-vivo imaging of the neuronal activity in mouse primary visual cortex. Left, high-resolution neuronal map; middle, high-speed neuronal activity recording captured by the two-photon microscope with ...

Professor Iksung Kang, KAIST >Observing the depths of a living brain with clarity has traditionally required expensive, high-end equipment. However ...

Intravital brain imaging is a powerful method for observing neurons, glial cells, and their surrounding environments in living animals. It facilitates the study of neurological diseases, drug efficacy ...

High-resolution images without expensive microscopy equipment. The aim of the EU-funded project “4 for 2” was to develop a new category of smart molecules for labelling cells, enabling more efficient ...

Researchers used a two-photon phosphorescent probe to monitor capillary flux and oxygen in sets of capillaries, obtaining a robust oxygen and flux estimate within each capillary, sufficient to observe ...

Researchers at University of California Davis (UC Davis) have designed a new laser-scanning approach to microscopy that is expected to open doors to brain-imaging in mouse models with improved speed ...

A newly described technology improves the clarity and speed of using two-photon microscopy to image synapses in the live brain. The brain's ability to learn comes from "plasticity," in which neurons ...

A new two-photon fluorescence microscope developed at UC Davis can capture high-speed images of neural activity at cellular resolution thanks to a new adaptive sampling scheme and line illumination.
