MIT Develops 3D Imaging for Whole Human Brain Hemispheres at Subcellular Resolution

Jun 13, 2024, 06:15 PM

Researchers at MIT have made significant advancements in brain imaging technology. They have developed a new protocol that allows for 3D imaging of entire human brain hemispheres at subcellular resolution, which was previously not possible without slicing the brain. This innovation, led by Kwanghun Chung's lab and reported in ScienceMagazine, enables comprehensive analysis of brain structures and provides new insights into neuroscience. The technique allows the brain to be richly and repeatedly labelable. These developments represent major strides in the field of neuroscience and brain research.
