New photoacoustic probes are allowing scientists to explore deeper into the brain as they can label and visualise neurons. Here, the scientific illustration features their novel photoacoustic dye that ...

To understand the brain better, new methods are required to observe its activity. That aim is at the heart of a molecular engineering project, spearheaded by two research groups at the European ...

MIT engineers have developed a small ultrasound sticker that can monitor the stiffness of organs deep inside the body. The sticker, about the size of a postage stamp, can be worn on the skin and is ...

To shed new light on the contribution of different brain regions and neural circuits to specific mental functions, neuroscientists and medical researchers rely on advanced imaging techniques and ...

Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and at the University of Southern California (USC), have developed a small ultrasound sticker that can be worn on the skin to monitor the ...
