First grant with MIT affiliation was received

MIT has a long history, reputation, and strength in providing innovative engineering and technological solutions to the world’s biggest problems. As part of this grant, we hope to expand our “out-of-the-box” neuroscience thinking to include opportunities to work closely with engineering experts to tackle the biggest issues in understanding the brain with clear, implementable collaborations.

With this $200,000 grant, I will continue developing nonlinear optical microscopy tools to explore different regions of the brain. Below, label free nonlinear imaging shows that we can acquire several important information about neurogenesis.
