A New Approach to Understanding and Healing the Brain

About us

Inscopix is pioneering a new paradigm in the quest to understand the brain and its diseases. Combining revolutionary technology and methods for the imaging of large-scale neural activity in a naturally behaving subject, Inscopix has developed the enabling means to relate causal neural circuit dynamics to corresponding behavior. With its nVista and nVoke products, Inscopix is today disseminating these capabilities to neuroscientists across the world, empowering them to gather unprecedented data and to make new scientific discoveries. With strategic collaborators and partners, Inscopix is at the same time developing in vivo neuropsychiatric disease assays and stands on the brink of making fundamental breakthroughs on treatments for brain diseases such as autism and schizophrenia. Inscopix has a rock star team, is advised by academic and industry luminaries, and is backed by leading institutional investors. To learn more about Inscopix visit: www.inscopix.com

    🚨 New Insights into 𝗦𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗙𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 from Columbia's Mortimer B. Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute! Pegah Kassraian and the team from Dr. Steven A. Siegelbaum lab at Columbia University have uncovered new insights into how the hippocampus processes social fear. By employing advanced techniques such as 𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲-𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗰𝗶𝘂𝗺 𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗽𝗶𝘅'𝘀 #𝗻𝗩𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮, they revealed the critical roles of the CA2 and CA1 regions in distinguishing social threats from safety. Their study, published in 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗡𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲, reveals that: 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗰𝘁 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: 🧠𝗖𝗔𝟮 distinguishes between safe and threatening social interactions. 🧠𝗖𝗔𝟭 encodes the locations tied to these experiences. 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘀: Mice learned to avoid a "risky" stranger associated with a mild shock. ✳️𝗦𝗶𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗔𝟭 caused mice to forget the shock location. 🐁𝗦𝗶𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗔𝟮 made mice fearful of both strangers—pointing to a connection with generalized social avoidance, a core feature of social anxiety and related disorders. 💡These findings highlight 𝗖𝗔𝟮’𝘀 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲 in regulating 𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗳𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗿𝘆, a process vital for survival, opening new paths for understanding conditions like PTSD and social anxiety.
