Scientists looking for ways to stimulate the growth of neurons can spend hours painstakingly analyzing microscope images of cells growing in petri dishes. A new algorithm automates that process and ...

Researchers at the Yale School of Medicine have, for the first time ever, imaged a neuron dying and subsequently undergoing “corpse removal.” In the video below, a brain cell is shown experiencing ...

The endoscopic imaging technique was applied to the striatum in order to record activities of striosomal neurons (left). An image observed by the endoscopic microscope (center). Reward-predictive ...

Two nerve cells, each about 10 micrometers large, are visible as shadows in this picture. From the beginning only the right one (yellow arrow) contained the toxic, red stained, oligomeric beta-amyloid ...

3D morphological analysis of neurons often requires using different imaging modalities, capturing multiple types of neurons and inspecting neurons in a range of densities. These complexities make it ...

Quantitative image analysis is rapidly becoming the bottleneck in high-throughput experiments that seek to gain new insights from advanced 3D microscopic digital images collected using multiple ...
