New preprint on a refractive-index-matched polymer for better light sheet imaging
Our collaborative effort with Hari Shroff at NIH and AcuityNano to characterize a new embedding polymer for live and fixed samples with much better image quality is out, here: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.10.04.324996v1 Getting great 3D imaging of live samples in a light sheet system requires refractive-index-matched materials, typically close to water (n = 1.333), but many embedding […]
Dan’s sleep preprint is out!
Congratulations Dan and co-authors on submitting the sleep paper! Adult C. elegans spontaneously sleep in microfluidic devices (depends on fluid flow, oxygen, hunger, and sensory stimulation), and we asked how neural responses change in sleep and awake states.
