Studying Dynamic Stem Cell Interactions in the Mouse Neocortex

22 Dec 2014

As the nervous system develops, Notch signaling is crucial for maintaining the cells necessary to generate the correct numbers and types of neurons in different regions in the brain. Researchers led by Dr. Branden R. Nelson at the University of Washington in Seattle used Imaris software to better understand how cells interact to convey Notch signaling, which is dependent on cell contact.

Software PlatformsSoftware platforms are useful for various stages of laboratory experiments from data collection to data storage and processing. For instance lab software is available for system control, data management, data analysis and qualification / validation.In Vivo Imaging Systems<i>In vivo</i> imaging systems, including pre-clinical imaging systems and medical imaging systems are used to non-invasively visualize and capture images of live animals and plants. Monitor the natural processes or diseases of your subjects using small-animal pre-clinical imaging systems, including single photon positron emission tomography (SPECT), positron emission tomography (PET), computed tomography (micro-CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), X-ray radiography, ultrasound, fluorescence and bioluminescence imagers. Multimodal systems and software solutions are also available for correlative analysis of organ, tissue, cell, or molecular-level processes.
