Abstract: Systems and methods for imaging using a microscope system comprising removeable or replaceable component parts. Such systems and methods employ semi-kinetic coupling for easy, tool-free attachment of the microscope system to a baseplate. Discussed systems and methods may include simultaneous imaging and stimulation using a microscope system. The microscope system can have a relatively small size compared to an average 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: 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: A system including a device configured to be partially inside of a target object (and to remain affixed to such object substantially irremovably and in an unchanged orientation with respect to such object at least on a time-scale comparable to term of life or use of the target object itself) to provide chronic access to an internal object location from an outside location and communication with such location along multiple communication channels that are spatially separate and substantially immovable with respect to one another while remaining moveable together and synchronously with the object. Delivery of electromagnetic energy and a material stimulus along the first and second communication channels is carried out such as to necessarily maintain unchanged mutual spatial positioning and orientation between the channels regardless of whether the channels are being used or not and regardless of whether the target object—together with these channels—is spatially repositioned.

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.
