How can scientists learn more about the 🧠 ? By seeing inside it! But actually doing it is a whole lot trickier than you think. "If you take a brain out of the skull and you cut a thin slice of it and put it under even a very powerful microscope, there's nothing there," says neuroscientist Carl Schoonover. "It's gray, formless. There's no structure. It won't tell you anything." So when researchers want to visualize the neurons zooming around our heads, they light them up from the inside! This photo is the brain of a mouse lit up with a naturally occurring bioluminescent protein — which actually comes from jellyfish. Schoonover argues that instead of constantly trying to invent new tools in our quest for information, we should look at the ones that nature has created and refined over millions of years. Watch his full talk on this innovative and elegant solution to studying the brain at the link in our bio. ⁠
