Light microscopy based approach for mapping connectivity with molecular specificity

Mapping neuroanatomy is a foundational goal of connectomics, and the gold standard method is electron microscopy as light microscopy lacks nanoscale resolution. Here the authors develop a strategy using multicolor genetic labeling (Brainbow) and expansion microscopy to map putative synaptic connecti...

Sumario:Mapping neuroanatomy is a foundational goal of connectomics, and the gold standard method is electron microscopy as light microscopy lacks nanoscale resolution. Here the authors develop a strategy using multicolor genetic labeling (Brainbow) and expansion microscopy to map putative synaptic connections using light microscopy.
