UC Davis researchers develop high-speed, low-power two-photon fluorescence microscope for studying neurological conditions.

Researchers at UC Davis developed a new two-photon fluorescence microscope capturing high-speed images of neural activity at cellular resolution. The new microscope, using adaptive sampling and line illumination, operates ten times faster than traditional methods, reducing laser power on the brain by more than tenfold. It could be utilized for studying neurological conditions like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and epilepsy at early stages.
