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. Making sense of this ...

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 at UC Davis have developed a fast and cost-effective two-photon microscopy system capable of imaging depths previously impossible to reach in scattering tissues, such as bone and the brain ...

Researchers have developed a new microscopy technology called decrowding expansion pathology (dExPath) to analyze brain tissue. By pulling proteins apart with dExPath, researchers can stain proteins ...

Justin Jadali connects mechanical engineering, biomaterials, and biological systems through reproducible tissue engineering ...

Selective plane illumination microscopy (SPIM) is a type of light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM), which is one such 3D imaging technique employing a thin sheet of light to illuminate cleared ...

The discovery of the interstitium made waves, with many questioning whether scientists had discovered a new organ. “It's actually not an organ. It's a system,” said Neil Theise, a medical doctor and ...

Microscopic fibers secretly shape how every organ in the body works, yet they’ve been notoriously hard to study—until now. A new imaging technique called ComSLI reveals hidden fiber orientations in ...
