Adaptive sampling illustration

Caption

A new two-photon fluorescence microscope can capture high-speed images of neural activity at cellular resolution thanks to a new adaptive sampling scheme and line illumination. The illustration shows the adaptive sampling scheme, in which a laser beam patterned by a digital micromirror device selectively illuminates neurons in the brain tissue to image their activity.
