The sixth annual competition showcases scientific microscopic imaging, illuminating tiny parts of nature, from individual cells to arthropods, diatoms and a zebrafish brain ...

Scientists have found a way to map the intricate patterns of cells in mouse brain tissue with an off-the-shelf light microscope, using a trick that inflates a tiny sample to 16 times its original size ...

CNW/ - A new Canada‑wide brain imaging platform will give scientists unprecedented views of how brain cells communicate, ...

A powerful new microscope called MOSAIC can film living cells in stunning 3D detail, but scientists now need AI to interpret ...

For decades, scientists have pushed the limits of microscopy to capture sharper and deeper views of the brain. Traditional light-based systems can map the cortex in detail but struggle to reach deeper ...

Cells long thought to play a secondary role in brain function build their own far-reaching connections, according to a new study in mice. These pathways appear to connect distant regions in ways that ...

Australian researchers have trained lab-grown brain cells on a silicon computer chip to play the nineties shooter game "Doom" and say they are just scratching the surface of what the neurons could be ...

Both for research and medical purposes, researchers have spent decades pushing the limits of microscopy to produce ever deeper and sharper images of brain activity, not only in the cortex but also in ...

Modern imaging is contributing significantly to giving us a better understanding of how our brains work. In the long term, this will also help us to treat learning disorders in a more targeted way and ...

Confocal microscope image of a fruit fly brain. (Louise Cheng) Not every region of your brain is equally susceptible to cancer. Over many decades of treating brain cancer, doctors have noticed ...
