This $1,386,474 Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) supports the acquisition of a Femtonics Atlas microscope at Baylor College of Medicine (BCM) in Houston, Texas. The advanced two-photon microscope system will enable rapid, high-resolution 3D imaging of neuronal activity using calcium, voltage, and neurotransmitter reporters. The award will allow BCM researchers to track activity in complex 3D neuronal and glial structures, image sparsely-labeled cells with high temporal resolution, and deliver precise two-photon optogenetic stimulation in parallel with imaging. This instrument will significantly advance neuroscience research capabilities at BCM and support a diverse set of NIH-funded projects within the Neuroscience Department, with potential applications in other departments as well.
