This important study presents a new method for longitudinally tracking cells in two-photon imaging data that addresses the specific challenges of imaging neurons in the developing cortex. It provides ...

Scientists have successfully grown over 400 different types of nerve cells from stem cells in the lab—a groundbreaking step toward replicating the complexity of the human brain.

Nerves look blue in the reconstructed view of a genetically engineered mouse (left) whose neurons produce a fluorescent ...

Methods to simultaneously localize the positions of multiple single fluorophores by precisely determining their individual positions are now yielding impressive gains in fluorescence microscopy ...

Nerve cells are not just nerve cells. Depending on how finely we distinguish, there are several hundred to several thousand ...

Researchers have created over 400 distinct types of human nerve cells in vitro, vastly expanding the diversity available for ...

A team has made a major breakthrough in the field of three-dimensional (3D) imaging of large-scale biological tissues. They ...

Scientists discover cold-loving proteins called cryorhodopsins that could help control brain cells with light.
