Researchers from Aarhus University—in a major international collaboration—have developed a groundbreaking method that can ...

Microimager, a novel, ultra-compact endoscope, may become one of the most versatile and least invasive methods in optical ...

A fluorescence-microscopy method for tracing neuronal connections in the brain could make connectomics studies more widely accessible for neuroscientists. Read the paper: Light-microscopy-based ...

The new technique, called Patho logy-oriented multi Plex ing or PathoPlex, can look under a microscope at over 100 different proteins in the same small piece of tissue - instead of just 1-2 at a time, ...

The team reported on the method in Nature, in a paper titled “Light-microscopy-based connectomic reconstruction of mammalian brain tissue,” in which they stated, “Here we present a ...

The brain may contain higher -- and more significant -- amounts of microplastics than other organs in the body, according to a new study. Researchers from the University of New Mexico Health ...

A cubic millimeter sounds tiny—to us, it is tiny—but a map of 200,000 brain cells represents just over a quarter of a percent of the mouse brain. In brain science terms, that’s ...

Putting humans into a state of suspended animation has been a sci-fi aspiration for decades. In Ridley Scott’s iconic film Alien, the crew of the Nostromo emerge from cryo-pods as they approach ...

Researchers found higher levels of microplastics in brain tissue than in liver and kidney tissue. UNM Health. The human brain may contain up to a spoon’s worth of tiny plastic shards—not a ...
