Upcoming Webinar | April 22 | Modulation of Neuronal Signaling by Brain Extracellular Space Structure and Dynamics
Dr. Virginia Puente is a neuroscientist whose work focuses on how the structure and dynamics of the brain’s extracellular space (ECS) modulate neuronal signaling. Her research integrates advanced tools including optogenetics, fluorescence imaging, and super-resolution techniques like STED microscopy and SUSHI (Super-resolution Shadow Imaging) to examine neuronal excitability and synaptic plasticity.
Researchers have used the Compresstome® in their procedure to section mouse embryo hypothalamus that has been injected with DNA and electroporated. This procedure demonstrates how it is possible to transfect nuclei in the hypothalamus region which are less accessible than those in superficial regions. Following this procedure additional experiments can be performed such as immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization.
Often heralded as leaders in the field, the Allen Brain institute performs pioneering research on all manner of brain tissue. Working with brain tissue can often be as frustrating as it is rewarding. Slicing brain tissue presents many challenges. The tissue is a combination of soft and fibrous regions. For over a decade, researchers at […]
