GO,Beijing丨The installation and commissioning of the HOOKE Instruments “S3000-Ultrafast Three-dimensional Fluorescence Imaging System” have been completed at Chinese Institute for Brain Research, Beijing

Chinese Institute for Brain Research, Beijing focuses on four major research directions, namely, the analysis of the principles of brain cognition, major brain diseases, new technologies in neuroscience, and research on neural computation, neural coding and decoding.

The installation of the HOOKE Instruments S3000 at Chinese Institute for Brain Research will be applied to the confocal imaging of the ultrastructure of brain tissues, including the thickness of neuron and glial cell membranes, endoplasmic reticulum membranes, and nuclear membranes. It will expand the three-dimensional fluorescence imaging conditions for comprehensive experiments, research and development in brain science and brain-like research. In terms of the application of rapid confocal imaging, it will help Chinese Institute for Brain Research, Beijing play a leading role in the national brain science program.
