Neuroverse 2. A Podcast by Neuroverse: Tools for Looking into the Brain - Fluorescence Microscopy
About the episode
In this episode, titled 'Tools for Looking into the Brain - Fluorescence Microscopy' your hosts Carolina and Clara introduce Fluorescence Microscopy. Fluorescence microscopy is a method for visualising structures and molecules in cells and tissues using fluorescent dyes, providing high-resolution images for studying biological samples and material properties, making it an important tool for Neuroscience research.
The Podcast series
In collaboration with Neuroverse, this podcast series, "Tools for Looking into the Brain," is dedicated to creating engaging and informative content exploring various techniques used by researchers in neuroscience. With a focus on electrophysiology, multiphoton imaging, and optogenetics. Throughout this series, we'll have special guest appearances, offering valuable insights and perspectives from experts in the field.
The hosts
Carolina and Clara are both neuroscientists and curious about the world and our perception of it. Their love for exploring ideas and bridging connections across various disciplines drew them to the interdisciplinary field of neuroscience. Together, they established Neuroverse as a platform for exploring and sharing ideas within and beyond neuroscience. Their goal is to create content that is accessible and engaging for both scientists and non-scientists alike.

Scientifica VistaScope
Scientifica’s VistaScope multiphoton system is the premier solution for two- and three-photon imaging. The large field of view, close to that of a mesoscope, means this multiphoton microscope allows neuroscientists to see more cells simultaneously and visualise entire brain areas.
