- Have you wondered how alcohol affects your emotions and behavior in the long run? How does (excessive) alcohol exposure trigger changes in the brain at the molecular, cellular, and circuitry levels?
- Reposted by Ruixuan GaoWe have two funded postdoctoral positions available. Topics encompass: -Next gen light-sheet fluorescence microscopy instrumentation -Structured illumination microscopy and other approaches to extend the resolution limit. -Nonlinear microscopy combined with adaptive optics / phase conjugation

VIPS helps researchers scale super resolution imaging to large whole-mount tissues. focalplane.biologists.com/2025/12/02/i...
- Reposted by Ruixuan GaoThrilled to share our Science cover! VIPS (volumetric imaging via photochemical sectioning) eliminates working-distance limits for whole-mount, nanoscale imaging. LLSM + photodegradable hydrogel + petabyte-scale compute → mapped axons & myelin across two mouse olfactory bulbs (WT vs NPC1).
