This video of neurons in a mouse brain was created by Sunil Gandhi, Ph.D., Damian Wheeler, Ph.D., and Ricardo Azevedo, M.D./Ph.D. candidate, neuroscientists and founders of Translucence Biosystems. This biotechnology company provides researchers and clinicians with fast, reliable 3D analysis of biological samples. Dr. Wheeler and his team have a BRAIN Initiative grant to develop new tools and technologies to collect high-resolution whole brain snapshots of neural activity in 3D.

We are excited to announce that Translucence Biosystems has entered into a collaborative and strategic relationship with Carl Zeiss AG to promote the use of the Mesoscale Imaging SystemTM with the new ZEISS Lightsheet 7 microscope, designed to advance the 3D histology revolution.

Translucence Biosystems is excited to announce that we have received first place in the 2020 BRAIN Initiative® Show Us Your BRAINs! Photo & Video Contest. The winning video was in under 20 minutes using the Mesoscale Imaging System™.

Translucence Biosystems has entered a collaborative research project with the lab of Thomas Lane, Ph.D. at UC Irvine to investigate the effects of coronaviruses, including SARS-CoV, on neuroinflammation. We are excited to utilize our technology for whole-brain measurements of various aspects of neuroinflammation to help understand the mechanisms underlying the cognitive effects of COVID-19.
