Wednesday, 11 January, 2023Microprism technology is an innovative product developed by Tower Optical for the last 15 years and used in advanced brain studies. Microprism enables researchers to study brain processes with unprecedented detail and accuracy, allowing them to view neural activity patterns in real-time. Microprism offers a unique capability of identifying the exact location of neurons within a given network, as well as providing valuable information about how different neuron populations interact with one another. This technology has enabled scientists to gain greater insight into the complex structures and pathways of the human brain and has had far-reaching implications for biomedical research. Microprism is transforming the field of neuroscience into an increasingly data-driven enterprise, opening up new avenues for understanding neurological disorders and developing novel treatments for these diseases.
