NCA30964 DRI Multi-photon 2021

This unique multi-photon microscope has the ability to simultaneously activate individual neurons while imaging a whole brain region (e.g. primary visual cortex). This technology – currently unavailable in Scotland and adopted by only a few laboratories in the world- would allow us to investigate the changes in neuronal connectivity that may underlie memory formation – as well as memory dysfunction in Alzheimer’s disease animal models. As such, this technology will not only allow us to generate new knowledge that hold the promise to open therapeutical avenues for Alzheimer’s disease that will…
