Until today, skin, brain, and all tissues of the human body were difficult to observe in detail with an optical microscope, since the contrast in the image was hindered by the high density of their ...

Our brain is a complex organ. Billions of nerve cells are wired in an intricate network, constantly processing signals, enabling us to recall memories or to move our bodies.

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

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, ...

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 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 ...
