Researchers at University of California Davis (UC Davis) have designed a new laser-scanning approach to microscopy that is expected to open doors to brain-imaging in mouse models with improved speed ...

The world of laser scanning microscopy is quickly evolving, thanks to the advent of fast and compact detector arrays. These arrays replace the typical single-element detector of traditional confocal ...

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 ...
