Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

Recent developments in miniaturized instrumentation resulted in the design and fabrication of miniaturized microscopes with high versatility and application in neurophotonics, using portable miniaturized microscopes and even reduced-size wireless microscopes incorporated into rodent skulls, allowing different types of signal tracking and highly valuable information recording from neuro-emitters, ion channel gates, neuron interactions and other types of brain cells and that based on microscopy imaging in vivo. Here, we discuss the versatility and state-of-the-art technology of these miniaturized instrumentations.
