Visual genetics: establishment of a new discipline to visualize neuronal nuclear functions in real-time in intact nervous system by 4D Raman spectroscopy
Working as a multi-disciplinary collaboration, this H2020 project aims to combine the knowledge of leading researchers and pioneering industry specialists to hone the technology and expertise needed to develop ground-breaking ways of visualising living tissue. The genetic content of a cell determines its function. Genes are constantly switched on and off from the birth of the cell up until it dies. This highly dynamic process is regulated both by internal (genetic) and external (environmental) factors. In this H2020 funded project we develop a new technology to visualise the active genes in real time.
