Abstract
We will present the initiative in imaging a hugely expanded drosophila brain via expansion microscopy, which has brought unprecedented opportunities and challenges. 100X expansion has been demonstrated in enlarging the typically 0.6x0.3x0.2 mm brain to 60x30x20 mm, which promises electron microscopy resolution (approximately 3 nm) with optical microscopy (approximately 300 nm) to resolve the synapses connection. A highly sped-up imaging method integrated with an ultrasound-activated microtome is crucial to support the initiative. Critically, photon statistics set the fundamental considerations in selecting the contrasts for optical imaging.
