When Two Is Better Than One: Elements of Intravital Microscopy David W
Open access, freely available online Primer When Two Is Better Than One: Elements of Intravital Microscopy David W. Piston ver the last 20 years, many cell biological studies have moved from the single-cell level to the tissue level, Oand even to whole animals. This progress has been led by developments in fl uorescence microscopy that permit molecular observations from single cells within intact tissue or animals. Concurrent developments in fl uorescent probes, especially the cloning of the Green Fluorescent Protein and its use in transgenic animals, have also fueled this movement. The key instrumental technology for this work is optical sectioning microscopy; in this technique, instead of fi xing DOI: 10.1371/journal.pbio.0030207.g001 and physically sectioning a sample, the investigator obtains a 3-D dataset from an intact (and more importantly, live) Figure 1. Images of a Shark Choroid Plexus Stained with Fluorescein specimen. The most common optical sectioning technique (A) and (B) were collected 70 µm into the sample, and (C) is confocal microscopy, where fl uorescence is created was collected 140 µm into the sample. The contrast of the confocal image (A) is signifi cantly degraded at this depth, while throughout the sample and a confocal pinhole is placed in two-photon excitation at the same focal plane (B) allows the front of the detector so that only the in-focus fl uorescence is collection of an image with excellent intensity contrast. Further, recorded. For live samples, whose cells can be killed by the using two-photon excitation to image deeper into the sample (C) excitation light (via photo-toxicity, particularly of ultraviolet does not signifi cantly degrade the image contrast.

Two Is Better Than One: Distinct Roles for Familiarity and Recollection in Retrieving Palimpsest Memories
Two is better than one: distinct roles for familiarity and recollection in retrieving palimpsest memories Cristina Savin1 Peter Dayan2 [email protected] [email protected] Mat´ e´ Lengyel1 [email protected] 1Computational & Biological Learning Lab, Dept. of Engineering, University of Cambridge, UK 2Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit, University College London, UK Abstract Storing a new pattern in a palimpsest memory system comes at the cost of inter- fering with the memory traces of previously stored items. Knowing the age of a pattern thus becomes critical for recalling it faithfully. This implies that there should be a tight coupling between estimates of age, as a form of familiarity, and the neural dynamics of recollection, something which current theories omit. Us- ing a normative model of autoassociative memory, we show that a dual memory system, consisting of two interacting modules for familiarity and recollection, has best performance for both recollection and recognition. This ﬁnding provides a new window onto actively contentious psychological and neural aspects of recog- nition memory. 1 Introduction Episodic memory such as that in the hippocampus acts like a palimpsest – each new entity to be stored is overlaid on top of its predecessors, and, in turn, is submerged by its successors. This implies both anterograde interference (existing memories hinder the processing of new ones) and retrograde interference (new memories overwrite information about old ones). Both pose important challenges for the storage and retrieval of information in neural circuits. Some aspects of these challenges have been addressed in two theoretical frameworks – one focusing on anterograde interference through the interaction of novelty and storage [1]; the other on retrograde interference in individual synapses [2].
