Biophysical Analysis in Neuroscience Research
The development of biophysical analysis techniques such as microscopic imaging has played a crucial role in the development of the life sciences. With the emergence and refinement of new technologies, cutting-edge research on the structure and dynamic properties of complex biological systems, from biomolecular complexes at the nanoscale, to cells at the micron scale, and even tissues and organs at larger scales, is facing major breakthroughs. These breakthroughs will enable a clearer understanding of how living units perform advanced biological functions at multiple spatial and temporal scales, from cell division to neural connections and even cognition and consciousness in the human brain.
CD BioSciences is committed to providing efficient technical support and scientific services to our clients in the field of neuroscience, including the study of the biophysical mechanisms of neural activity and its plasticity that underpin the higher functions of the brain such as learning, memory and thinking, as well as the biological basis of related mental disorders. Based on an advanced biophysical technology platform, we integrate electrophysiology, photonics, molecular biology and computational simulation to explore at the cellular, network and holistic levels to help our clients bridge the gap between molecular mechanisms and systemic functions.
