Monochromatic Head-Mounted Mini-Microscope Imaging System
Equipment Introduction
The nVista systems enables large-scale brain signals in vivo calcium imaging in freely behaving animals to correlate neural activity with behavior.
*Visualize neuronal activity with a cellular resolution during free behavior
*Leverage advanced capabilities to explore new applications, including neurotransmitters
*Record longitudinal data within the same field of view over months.
The head-mounted nVista miniature microscope enables one-photon epifluorescence imaging of calcium dynamics, a correlate of neural activity.
*Perform reproducible science with miniscopes calibrated and tested in production
*Increase cell yield, through digital focus enabled multiplane imaging maximizing the captured cell number
*Integrate nVista and multimodal inputs with automated control and precise timing
