Observation of near-infrared fluorescence from within biological specimens using X-ray light-sheet microscopy for deep-tissue imaging

Abstract Light-sheet fluorescence microscopy enables rapid three-dimensional imaging of biological specimens with low phototoxicity and high signal-to-noise ratio, but its imaging depth is limited by optical scattering and absorption in tissue. X-ray light-sheet microscopy, terme...

Artificial hibernation reveals synaptic engram architecture associated with memory retention

Memories leave lasting physical changes at the synaptic level. Although stable, larger spines are thought to support memory, the high turnover of dendritic spines and the drifting of neuronal representations after memory formation suggest alternative possibilities. To elucidate t...
