DESCRIPTION:Prof. Eirini Papagiakoumou\nUnderstanding how neurons process 
 and relay information by transducing synaptic inputs into action potential
 s is a fundamental problem in neuroscience. To improve the performances of
  the microscope\, we have implemented the system for two photon excitation
 . In this case\, control and localization of illumination patterns in the 
 axial direction are achieved by combining holographic illumination with th
 e recently introduced technique of temporal focusing. With this method we 
 show that an axial confinement of about 5 μm is reached independently on 
 the lateral extension of the excitation spot.
