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 ...

Researchers have developed a new two-photon fluorescence microscope that captures high-speed images of neural activity at cellular resolution. By imaging much faster and with less harm to brain tissue ...

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, ...

Plants lack nerves, yet they can sensitively detect touch from other organisms. In the Venus flytrap, highly sensitive ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

In experimental autoimmune encephalitis (EAE), autoimmune T cells are activated in the periphery before they home to the CNS. On their way, the T cells pass through a series of different cellular ...

Alzheimer's disease is marked by the buildup of amyloid plaques in the brain, but most ways of studying these deposits in ...
