Introduction to Special Issue on Neurophotonics
Year: 2023
Type: editorial
Abstract: Optoelectronics, genomics, and proteomics have ushered in an era of new approaches and tools for neuroscience research, especially optical neuroimaging.\Function follows form", anatomical structure is the basis for understanding brain function and brain diseases.Brain function depends on neuronal networks, so from a systems biology perspective, not only should the neuronal level be studied, but also the neuronal networks and system levels.Optical imaging can now be applied at multiple levels, from the gene to the molecule, from the cell to the tissue, and from the organ to the system, to provide critical information that bridges molecular structure and physiological function.This special issue, which includes seven research articles, aims to highlight recent advances in the development of neurophotonic techniques and their applications in biological discovery, disease diagnosis, and treatment.This special issue was also prepared to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Wuhan National Laboratory for Optoelectronics.
