Q. Have any of the labs that are using your invention CLARITY to more precisely observe the brain after death found things that were particularly surprising in your view?

D.H. Chen Professor of Bioengineering and of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences

Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator

Stanford University
Though CLARITY technology is so new that these kinds of studies have not yet been published, indeed there are early reports of unusual and surprising three-dimensional structures in some patient-derived brain tissue. A great many laboratories around the world now have CLARITY operational, and it will be interesting and exciting to see what emerges in the decades to come.
