Research Abstract |
We have developed a microscope system that tracks a target animal motion by using real-time control of motorized stage. The system can analyze and record the response of the target animal with high time and space resolutions. Especially, we have realized a system to observe C. elegans in bright field as well as in fluorescence images simultaneously. C. elegans is widely used for many purpose as a model animal. Thus the system is contributing in many fields including sensor response, neural network analysis, internal neural state analysis, motor control, and also animal behavior.
