The technology has thus far been applied to produce spectacular proof of principle recordings of model organism embryos which capture the developing specimen
at cellular resolution throughout early development.
A new experimental, non-invasive medical technique is promising to precisely deliver drug - carrying metal nanorods anywhere inside the body and image tissue
with cellular resolution.
However, in order to
obtain cellular resolution of the retina and hence even better results, it has so far been necessary to use expensive adaptive lenses to correct the image aberrations that occur.
In the worm, we are developing tools to monitor neuromodulation at
cellular resolution in an intact brain and using them to directly measure endogenous peptide release and binding to receptors on identified neurons using real - time approaches for imaging neuropeptide signaling, in order to understand the dynamics of this process in a living animal.
Her research activity is focused on the three - dimensional reconstruction of intact neuronal networks,
with cellular resolution, of the whole mouse brain using light sheet microscopy and human brain samples with two - photon fluorescence microscopy.
«We looked at sex differences, but the tools we used — large - scale imaging of neuronal activity
at cellular resolution — could be used to study any kind of differences between individuals, not just in the nose but elsewhere in the brain,» Xu said.
Automated method detects activity of neurons during specific behaviors, brainwide, at
cellular resolution...
