This research develops advanced optical imaging technology to observe neurons firing in real time throughout the brain. By combining high-speed microscopy with flexible fibre-optic image relays, the system overcomes the challenge of light scattering, enabling clearer recordings of neural activity and deeper insights into brain function.

Understanding how the brain controls behavior is key to studying neurological disease. This research introduces a high-speed robotic system that tracks mouse behavior in fine detail. By synchronizing precise behavioral data with brain activity recordings, it enables researchers to link specific neural regions to actions, improving insight into disorders like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s.
