Neuroscience Images
Neuroscience commonly uses microscopy to study the nervous system’s function and understand neurodegenerative diseases.
Understanding Motor Sequence Generation Across Spatiotemporal Scales
We have developed a microscopy-based pipeline to characterize a developmentally critical behavior at the pupal stage of development, called the ecdysis sequence. We study brain-wide neuronal activity…
Investigating Synapses in Brain Slices with Enhanced Functional Electron Microscopy
A fundamental question of neuroscience is: what is the relationship between structural and functional properties of synapses? Over the last few decades, electrophysiology has shed light on synaptic…
How to improve your Biomarker Discovery Workflow with Laser Microdissection
Biomarkers can be used as indicators of certain diseases, such as cancer. The tumor microenvironment moved into the spotlight in this concern. It is in close interaction with the tumor itself.…
Neurosurgery with Heads-up Display
In the following video interviews Prof. Dr. Raphael Guzman, Vice Chairman of the Department of Neurosurgery at the University Hospital in Basel, Switzerland, talks about his experience in heads-up…
GLOW800 Augmented Reality Fluorescence in Aneurysm Treatment
This case study from Prof. Dr. Feres Chaddad talks about the treatment of unruptured MCA (middle cerebral artery) and PCOM (posterior communicating artery) aneurysms with microsurgical clipping. It…
Bridging Structure and Dynamics at the Nanoscale through Optogenetics and Electrical Stimulation
Nanoscale ultrastructural information is typically obtained by means of static imaging of a fixed and processed specimen. However, this is only a snapshot of one moment within a dynamic system in…
Zebrafish Brain - Whole Organ Imaging at High Resolution
Structural information is key when one seeks to understand complex biological systems, and one of the most complex biological structures is the vertebrate central nervous system. To image a complete…
Improving RNA Analysis with Laser Microdissection
Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder connected with cell death of dopamine-releasing neurons in the brain. Differences in gene expression between individual…
