Abstract: An adapter configured to be optically coupled to a plurality of microscopes. The adapter includes a) a first microscope interface configured to optically couple a first microscope to an optical element in optical communication with an optical probe; b) a second microscope interface configured to optically couple a second microscope to the optical element in optical communication with the optical probe; and c) an optical arrangement configured to direct light collected from a sample with aid of the optical probe to (1) the first microscope and second microscope simultaneously, or (2) the first microscope or second microscope selectively.

Abstract: Systems and methods for multi-color imaging using a microscope system. The microscope system can have a relatively small size as compared to an average microscope system. The microscope system can include various components configured to reduce or eliminate image artifacts such as chromatic aberrations and/or noise from stray light that can occur during multi-color imaging. The components can be configured to reduce or eliminate the image artifacts, and/or noise without substantially changing the size of the microscope system.

Abstract: Systems and methods configured for simultaneous imaging and stimulation using a microscope system. The microscope system can have a relatively small size compared to an average microscope system. The microscope can comprise in part an imaging light source and a stimulation light source. Light from the imaging light source and the stimulation light source can be spectrally separated to reduce cross talk between the stimulation light and the imaging light.

Abstract: System and methods are provided for distributed microscopy. A plurality of microscopes may capture images and send them to a media server. The microscopes and the media server may be part of a local area network. The microscopes may each have a distinct network address. The media server may communicate with an operations console, which may be used to view images captured by the microscopes. The operations console may also accept user input which may be used to selectively control the microscopes.
