High-Resolution Imaging in the Cortex or Deep-Brain

The OASIS Micro is designed to image the activity of thousands of neuronal populations in a small cortical region or the deep-brain by coupling to a GRIN lens of a head-fixed mouse. The lenses compatible with the OASIS Micro provide high-resolution imaging in vivo.

Cellular-Resolution Optogenetics

Perform cellular-resolution optogenetics or stimulate the entire area with widefield optogenetics. The addition of Mightex’s Polygon to the OASIS Micro platform enables targeted patterned illumination of regions or cells of interest.

Synchronize with Behavioural or Electrophysiology Equipment

Easily synchronize imaging or optogenetics with other lab equipment. Synchronize with your stimulation patterns or imaging with electrophysiology or behavioural equipment.

Simplistic Design for In Vivo Experiments

The OASIS Micro is designed for in vivo experiments with a minimalist design. A heavy-duty precision XYZ stage is mounted on the support structure and the OASIS optical assembly is in turn mounted on the XYZ stage. The XYZ stage controls the lateral motion as well as the focus of the system.

Compatible with Third-Party Scientific Cameras

When imaging indicators in vivo, scientists need ways to reliably and confidently collect and analyse the signals obtained. Our platform supports the use of scientific-grade cameras that maximize the quality and temporal resolution of the image acquisition. Compatible with any C-mount camera or multiple cameras.
