Over the past year, two scientists who have been at Janelia since its opening took on new roles as group leaders, and six new fellows were recruited to head their own research groups. More

A new software package promises to greatly speed up scientists' ability to assemble and manipulate extremely detailed microscope images. More

Janelia Farm scientists have borrowed a technique from the field of astronomy to overcome biology's equivalent of the twinkling of stars and the shimmering mirages in desert landscapes. More

A new imaging tool lets researchers watch individual neurons in the brains of living animals light up as they work together to control the animal's behavior. More

At the Howard Hughes Medical Institute's Janelia Farm Research Campus in Virginia, scientists are developing innovative new technologies and pursuing ambitious scientific questions. This summer, sixteen undergraduate students are part of that mission. More

New housing will support the recruitment of graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and other scientists at the beginning of their careers. More

A new twist on a sophisticated light microscopy technique is enabling researchers to capture short videos of fast-moving cellular processes while delivering super high resolution images of whole cells. More

An international scientific challenge is being launched to speed development of new tools that accurately and automatically reconstruct the shape of brain cells from microscopy data. More

The shapes of some of the tiniest cellular structures are coming into sharper focus at Janelia Farm, where scientists have developed a new imaging technology that produces the best three-dimensional resolution ever seen with an optical microscope. More

Researchers have identified a chemical messenger that helps different sites on individual neurons coordinate with one another. More

New studies provide a fresh view of the computational power of neurons. More

Even short bursts of activity in a few neurons can influence learning and decision making. More

Dr. Vijay K. Samalam joins Janelia Farm from the San Diego Supercomputer Center. More

Janelia Farm is seeking up to 8 college students to pursue research projects with Janelia Farm scientists during Summer 2008. More

In recognition of exceptional contributions to science, Gerald M. Rubin and Morgan Sheng have been elected to the Fellowship of the Royal Society. More

Researchers have devised a way to activate neurons in a living mouse by shining light on the surface of the animal's brain. The scientists who developed the new method believe it will change how researchers map the function of brain circuits in living animals. More

Top researchers from 28 countries report on their latest research into some of the world's toughest biomedical challenges. More
