This is no high school science class microscope, but a massive instrument about half a room in size that uses two-photon lasers to create a 3D image of the neurons under its beams in real time.

Under the microscope, these neurons didn't look right. They had fewer branches and fewer synapses than neurons made the same way from people without autism. They also fired less.

The evidence for this dogma seemed strong: neuroanatomists in the early 20th century had identified immature neurons under the microscope but only in the brains of mammalian embryos and fetuses ...

Like a microscope can do in a laboratory, Microscope is made to help AI researchers better understand the architecture and behavior of neural networks with tens of thousands of neurons. Initial ...

As it was, Cajal’s depictions of the nerve cells he scrutinized under his microscope were key components of his science. Look what I saw, his intricate pencil and ink drawings told the world ...

Neurons are the cells that govern brain function, and you are born with most of the neurons you will ever have during your lifetime. ... we looked under the microscope for markers of neurogenesis.

The 13th annual video competition is a spinoff of the annual Nikon Small World photo contest, which was founded in 1974 to recognize excellence in microphotography – or life under the microscope.

More than 130 years have passed since the Spanish neuroscientist Santiago Ramón y Cajal first spied individual neurons under a microscope, making out their peculiar branched shapes.

''We waited seven days to observe the survival of the targeted neurons under the microscope, and we found a greater number of destroyed dopaminergic neurons when the exposure had been made during ...
