Scientists have developed a head-mounted miniature microscope, the so-called fiberscope, that is capable of imaging all cortical layers of a freely moving rat ...

To image the deeper layers of the cortex on a cellular level, a new approach was needed. In collaboration with Philip Russell’s group at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, Kerr’s group ...

Behold, the Cortical Column. A three-dimensional rendering of the mammalian neocortex displays the six cortical layers—from the surface of the brain to the inside. Distinct cytoarchitectural features ...

We have made a large step towards finally imaging brain activity deep in the cortex of animals performing natural visual-based behaviors” says Jason Kerr, director of the Department of Behavior and ...

Throughout the brain's cortex, neurons are arranged in six distinctive layers, which can be readily seen with a microscope. A team of MIT neuroscientists has now found that these layers also show ...
