Long-Term Optical Access to the Brain

See-Shells

Objective Biotechnology’s See-Shells enable long-term optical access to the rodent brain:

  • Transparent wide-field and cellular image access to the dorsal cortex

  • Customized designs for headfixed imaging and imaging with mini-mScope

  • Perforated See-Shells allow multi-modal neural interfacing
