Fluorescence imaging can reveal details of neuronal activity in sections of the spinal cords of animals, but collecting data from living subjects can be challenging. Developments in micro-optics ...

By revealing the cellular and computational logic of spinal cord networks under ... Schematic showing the implanted imaging chamber and mounted miniaturized one-photon microscope in cross-section.

Methods: A total of 12 nonexercise-trained complete spinal cord injured (SCI) persons (10 males and two females 40±12 years old ... Individual cross sections were 1 cm thick and 1 cm apart.

We needed to dramatically speed up the pace at which we can image large 3D volumes of the brain and spinal cord. Traditional methods are a bottle neck that limit discovery.

A new study shows that 3D-printing a section of spinal cord, living cells and all, restored movement in injured rats. Skip to main content. ... microscope, or a sharp scalpel.
