A novel reversible, noninvasive technique to observe neuron formation and firing in juvenile mice has been developed. During childhood and adolescence, our brain goes through a lot of changes. But ...

During childhood and adolescence, our brain goes through a lot of changes. But studying those changes in juvenile mice is challenging because scientists don’t have a way to repeatedly image the same ...

Scientists say they've used a common food dye to render the skin of a mouse transparent, revealing the workings of blood vessels and organs underneath. Image by Keyi "Onyx" Li/U.S. National Science ...

When you hear 'making skin transparent,' it may sound like an absurd science fiction or supernatural power. However, a research team at Stanford University has succeeded in developing a technology ...

Researchers have developed a reversible method to make the skin of juvenile mice transparent to visible light, enabling repeated imaging of the brain during early development. The technique, reported ...

“For those who understand the fundamental physics behind this, it makes sense; but if you aren’t familiar with it, it looks like magic trick,” Dr Zihao Ou said A common food dye found in the popular ...
