"Best practices and tools for reporting reproducible fluorescence microscopy methods."

Graduate student Rebecca Senft did some work away from the lab bench, collaborating on "Best practices and tools for reporting reproducible fluorescence microscopy methods." A comprehensive guide for how to get consistent results in microscopy, this paper walks through a number of elements including how to best approach meta-data reporting, different types of microscopes, validation, and more. This paper is now available at Nature Methods.

“Neurochemically and Hodologically Distinct Ascending VGLUT3 versus Serotonin Subsystems Comprise the r2-Pet1 Median Raphe,”

Read our latest publication “Neurochemically and Hodologically Distinct Ascending VGLUT3 versus Serotonin Subsystems Comprise the r2-Pet1 Median Raphe,” now available in the Journal of Neuroscience. We describe “sister” Pet1 lineages, one serotonergic and the other largely glutamatergic, with the latter forming exquisite presynaptic structures called pericellular baskets in the septum,
