Scientists used lab-grown brain organoids and machine learning to identify distinct electrical signatures associated with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, potentially paving the way for more accurate diagnoses and personalized treatments.
Scientists at the Salk Institute have developed wearable microscopes that produce high-definition and real-time images of neurons and activity in the mouse spinal cord in previously inaccessible regions. The new technology can be combined with a microprism implant, which is a small reflective glass element placed near the tissue regions of interest. The wearable microscopes will help researchers better understand the neural basis of sensations and movement in healthy and disease contexts, such as chronic pain, itch, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), or multiple sclerosis (MS).
