This is the first post in a series where we get to showcase breakthrough work from our customers and collaborators. In our environments, we’re constantly presented with things we find rewarding (like the Bulbasaur Pokémon I caught today), or downright annoying. Regardless of what we like and can do without, we encode these preferences, and

Inscopix kicked off their 7th two-day educational workshop event on July 25-26, 2016. The workshop is designed to give scientists in-depth training on Inscopix’s imaging (nVista) and analysis (Mosaic) systems as well as in-house laboratory demonstrations using Inscopix’s imaging devices. Scientists and customers from six institutions across four countries attended the event and took the

Inscopix (Mountain View, CA) has brought its nVista brain imaging platform—which can view upwards of 1,000 neurons simultaneously in one field of view—to market. Originally only accessible through the Neuroscience Early Access Program (NEAP), Inscopix plans to expand the system’s reach to the widest spectrum of neuroscience investigators through packages customized for specific researcher needs.
Women in science and industry face unique challenges, from finding rewarding careers in a tough economic climate, to achieving tenure and leadership roles in high pressure work environments amid unbalanced social expectations. As a high tech neuroscience startup company, Inscopix is a proud supporter of women in science and industry. Our growing workforce consists of
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., April 4, 2016 /PRNewswire/ — Inscopix Inc., today announced the commercial launch of its nVista brain imaging platform to the neuroscience research community. Centered on a patented miniature microscope technology from Stanford University, the nVista system is a significant technological advance that decodes the neural language underlying brain function and behavior. Originally
Mapping neuron activity in live animals is a key step for researchers,but now industry needs to play its part. Fluorescence microscopy has been a key enabling technology in recent neuroscience research, playing a significant role in the activities of programs such as the BRAIN Initiative and in the strides now being made in the field

How does the nervous system guide/produce specific behaviors? Over the years, neuroscientists have relied on behavioral paradigms to understand the brain’s control of behavior in humans and non-human animals from early development to senescence. This encompasses motivation, perception, attention, learning and memory, and motor performance and offers insights into the complex interplay between the brain,

At the pre-meeting symposium at SfN 2015, Inscopix hosted Dr. Howard Eichenbaum, Director of the Center for Memory and Brain at Boston University, who presented his current work on The advantages of large-scale neuronal recordings: Revealing the organization and dynamics of cognitive maps. Dr. Eichenbaum uses a combination of neuropsychological and electrophysiological studies to understand

An implantable miniature microscope lets researchers track the brain activity of mice in real time, as the animals forage for food or navigate a maze. It’s like a tiny GoPro for the rodent brain. Dubbed the nVista system, it’s the brainchild of Mark Schnitzer, a professor of biology and applied physics at Stanford University, who
