Researchers develop microscope allowing deep brain exploration.

A team of neuroscientists and bioengineers at the University of Colorado have created a miniature, fiber-optic microscope designed to peer deeply inside a living brain.  The researchers published details of their revolutionary microscope in the Optics Letters journal.  The team state that microscopes currently only penetrate about one millimeter into the brain and almost everything researchers need to see is deeper than that.  Now researchers … Continue reading Researchers develop microscope allowing deep brain exploration.
