A microscope lens implanted deep inside a mouse's brain shows different patterns of neural activity when the mouse interacts with males, females, or other stimuli. Now, researchers have discovered ...

You might imagine that all one should need to operate a microscope would be a good set of eyes. Unfortunately if you are an amputee that may not be the case. Veterinary lab work for example requires ...

In a feat of miniaturization, researchers have engineered a fluorescence microscope that is three inches long, weighs less than an ounce, and sits perched on a rat's head. Fritjof Helmchen, Winfried ...

Imaging methods for large-scale recordings of neural activity in rodents have improved significantly in recent years, but scientists still face significant hurdles, especially when trying to record ...

Working with mice, researchers have developed a relatively inexpensive, portable mini microscope that could improve scientists' ability to image the effects of cancer, stroke, Alzheimer's disease and ...
