RELEASE: I’m out on GitHub in an upgraded version as “MINI2P 2023”. Improvements: • scanning distortion • weight • new locking mechanism for faster & easier assembly and reparation • and other treats! A commercial version of @KISNeuro’s #MINI2P_2023 will be available soon

Congratulations to the brilliant @WikiZong for receiving a FRIPRO grant by @forskningsradet for the miniature microscope @TheMini2P that allows researchers to see 👀 cognitive functions emerge from thousands of collaborating neurons in the brain 🧠 of a freely behaving mouse!

Zong lab got an NTNU Discovery Grant for developing new 2P miniscopes! Thank the NTNU Discovery committee and Sparebank, the sponsor! The project is led by an amazing postdoc @Antonio_lorca_ and got strong support from Annelene Dahl @NTNUTTO! So encouraging for us!

Imaging scientists @kisneuro have developed a mini 2-photon microscope @TheMini2P for fast, high-resolution, multiplane Ca2+ imaging of 1000+ neurons in freely moving mice. With a team of collaborators they are now working to validate + share this fully open-source tech

👀 You are watching a brain make decisions in real time. Imaging researchers recently invented @TheMini2P a portable microscope that weighs about as much as a dime. It offers an incredible window into the brain as it remembers, imagines & makes decisions

Imagine a 🪟 into the brain where we could see memory, imagination + decision-making in real time. Researchers @kisneuro + @TheMini2P have developed a tiny microscope that is so light we can observe completely new aspects of the living brain in action 📸 Rita Elmkvist Nilsen

Come check out the Moser Group at #FENS2024 @FENSorg! Bring your curiosity for the Wednesday morning session at 9:30-14:30, June 26th at PS01-26AM. We’ll show you eight exciting projects on hippocampal spatial encoding. Expect @TheMini2P, #Neuropixels and #gridcell manifolds 🍩

It was a pleasure to have @MasudHusain telling us about his wonderful work on working memory @KISNeuro. Thank you for visiting us and thoughtful feedbacks!

Great pleasure to host Dr Yulong Li's visit @KISNeuro and I was amazed again by the excellent work from @yulonglilab !

Thank Evandro Fang for the invitation. It was a lot of fun seeing old and new friends in Oslo and discussing science and technology.

Looking to duplicate your freely moving experiments with two independently controlled Mini2P outputs? Here is a simple and turn-key laser solution. Please contact @SPARKLASERS1 to learn more. @TheMini2P

The NO-Age/AD Talk # 74 Miniature two-photon microscopes for studying brain microcircuits Dr. Weijian Zong @KISNeuro 14:00-15:00 (CET), Monday, 06 May 2024 Location: L-200, Domus Medica, Oslo On-line: https://t.co/2DqlvsoeAO Previous talks : https://t.co/uu5SKgAVCs

It was my pleasure to invite Dr. St-Pierre @StPierreLab to visit @KISNeuro and he gave a great talk. He is such smart and bright as a person so I absolutely enjoyed our discussion about science, career and life! Look forward to new resolutions brought by his lab.

It was really fun to have this roundtable discussion with Lesley and Joe at @MPFNeuro.

A new Neurotransmissions Podcast episode is out! Hosts @JWScience & @colgan_lesley speak with @wikizong @KISNeuro about the motivation, challenges & advancements leading to @TheMini2P. Watch https://t.co/nwfXnTWvpb or listen on major podcast platforms https://t.co/lcGX1xgmoR

Listen to this insightful podcast about the recent revolution in miniature 2-photon microscopy and @WikiZong ´s essential role in it! @KISNeuro @KavliFoundation @forskningsradet @MayBrittMoser @MPFNeuro @TheMini2P

We are recruiting 6 Postdocs/PhDs @KISNeuro to develop and adapt cutting-edge neuron-recording technology including next-generation @TheMini2P to study fundamental algorithms in the brain. Positions are both in Moser lab & in my lab! Apply if you love technology & neuroscience!!

Push the frontier in making small things big with @WikiZong @TheMini2P in beautiful #Norway! #Microscopy #Imaging 🔬...

Zong group ( https://t.co/0LD53Nnpyd) at @KISNeuro is looking for a highly motivated engineer (100%) to help develop cutting-edge imaging technology 🔬 for neuroscience📷. Follow recent work @TheMini2P and apply !! https://t.co/fFdyFDl9h3

Thanks, Gilles @MpiBrain - much appreciated- and yes, so many exciting questions to be addressed still🎊

🧠✨Happy #FluorescenceFriday! Take a peek into the brain's secrets. 🔬 Neurons express green, fluorescent calcium indicator - GCaMP. They're lit up by a fixed wavelength @CoherentLaser - Axon 920 nm guided through a 10-ft fiber! 🙏@TheMini2P team's work by Malinda
