New Article from Martin Thunemann

Professor Thunemann et al. were recently published in nature protocols for their piece on “Construction and use of an adaptive optics two-photon microscope with direct wavefront sensing” ABSTRACT: Two-photon microscopy, combined with the appropriate optical labelling, enables the measurement and tracking of submicrometer structures within brain cells, as well as the spatiotemporal mapping of spikes […]

New Article from Irving Bigio and David Boas

Professors Bigio, Boas, et al. were recently published in OPTICA for an article on “Multiscale label-free imaging of myelin in human brain tissue with polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography and birefringence microscopy” ABSTRACT The combination of polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) and birefringence microscopy (BRM) enables multiscale assessment of myelinated axons in postmortem brain tissue, and […]

New “Frontiers” Article from Xue Han

Professor Xue Han served as the corresponding author in Frontier’s recent article: “The autism spectrum disorder risk gene NEXMIF over-synchronizes hippocampal CA1 network and alters neuronal coding.” The viewable publication is set to be finalized soon. ABSTRACT Mutations in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) risk genes disrupt neural network dynamics that ultimately lead to abnormal behavior. […]
