UC Davis researchers have created a miniaturized microscope for real-time, high-resolution imaging of brain activity in mice.

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.

The DeepInMiniscope enables non-invasive, high-resolution imaging of mouse brain activity, transforming neuroscience research ...

For decades, scientists have worked to peer deeper into the brain. They have wanted to see not just surface activity in the ...

Scientists have long known that the hippocampus is essential for forming new memories. It helps record where and when things ...

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 ...

Fascinating new findings into how clusters of 'brain stars' retain memories has changed what we know about how they're held in our minds. Baylor College of Medicine researchers have been investigating ...

We have designed and constructed a new type of reflected-light microscope to form images including only light reflected near the plane of the object. This selectivity of image formation is based on a ...

The accumulation of misfolded proteins in the brain is central to the progression of neurodegenerative diseases like Huntington's, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. But to the human eye, proteins that are ...

Hormone levels fluctuate like the tides, ebbing and flowing according to carefully orchestrated cycles. These hormones not only influence the body, but can cross into the brain and shape the behavior ...
