The study, co-authored by Ed Boyden, finds stimulating key brain rhythms with light + sound could drive clearance of an Alzheimer’s protein.
The new imaging method is based on expansion microscopy, which was developed in Professor Ed Boyden’s lab in 2015.
Fluorescent probe could allow scientists to watch circuits within the brain and link their activity to specific behaviors.
The award recognizes outstanding contributions within the realm of scientific photography.
A new fly-through of the fly brain allows anyone to whizz past neurons and visit any of the 40 million synapses where neurons touch neuron.
Ed Boyden and collaborators combine expansion microscopy with lattice light-sheet microscopy to capture detailed images of the brain.
New 3D imaging technique can reveal, much more quickly than other methods, how neurons connect throughout the brain.
Biomechatronics researcher Tyler Clites and Synthetic Neurobiology researcher Fei Chen are among the 2019 Forbes 30 Under 30 honorees.
The 2019 Forbes 30 Under 30 list includes at least three members of the Media Lab community.
Why was Einstein’s brain so good at some things and not others? Why is yours?
High-resolution imaging with conventional microscopes:Tissue-expansion technique could allow scientists to map brain circuits.
