Topics
FiNS 2015 focus on leading edge photonics approaches and technologies to understand brain structure and function.
Advances in neuroscience critically hinge on the development of approaches that enable probing and controlling cellular and molecular events in live cells and within the intact brain. Optical approaches are rapidly becoming central to bridge molecular and systems neuroscience.
Topics covered included:
- Super-resolution optical microscopy
- Image analysis & computational approaches
- Optogenetics & photomanipulation
- In vivo non-linear imaging
- Single molecule techniques
- Intrinsic molecular imaging and spectroscopy
- Fiber probes for sensing, imaging, and stimulating
