Maybe I am reading it wrongly, but you also need genetically modified mice, and is it actually closed skull or open skull? I mean if you want to see the brain photons, it is most likely open skull. Dont do that at home.

I imagine the open-source idea is that other research groups can build a two-photon miniscope on their own. I agree, I really don't think this is amenable to hobbyists.
