Fluorescent Brain Probe Visualizes Groups of Neurons As They Compute

Fluorescent probe could allow scientists to watch circuits within the brain and link their activity to specific behaviors. Using a fluorescent probe that lights up when brain cells are electrically active, MIT and Boston University researchers have shown that they can image the activity of many neurons at once, in the brains of mice. This … Continue reading Fluorescent Brain Probe Visualizes Groups of Neurons As They Compute
