Watching neurons connect, live

[From Bruce Nevin (2006.11.06.15.25 EST)]

The article at


scope_renaissance/ depends upon striking microphotographic images that
accompanied it in the print edition but which unfortunately are missing
in the online edition. I have asked the Globe web team if they can put
them up and let me know when they're there. But the article describes
some pretty amazing developments, even without the pictures. Imagine
being able to stalk the wild neuron in its native habitat without harm
to it or its environment.

If you can get a copy of today's Boston Globe, it's in the
Health/Science section, page C1.
