RIVETS

Developed by Jason E. Osborne, Neurobiological Instrument and Systems Designer, and Joshua T. Dudman, Janelia Farm Group Leader at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, RIVETS is an open-source mechanical system for in vivo and in vitro electrophysiology and imaging in...
HERBS: Histological E-data Registration in rodent Brain Spaces

HERBS: Histological E-data Registration in rodent Brain Spaces

One of the keys to understanding neural correlates of behavior is to understand neural coordinates that we study with various probes. Traditional paper atlases have served as a key tool for researchers both mapping plans for experiments and assessing the histological...
Neonatal Stereotaxic Mouse Adaptor

Neonatal Stereotaxic Mouse Adaptor

 Pedro Olivetti and colleagues have designed a novel 3D printed device for stereotaxic viral delivery into the brains of neonatal mice. Postnatal development corresponds to a critical period of dynamic changes in the brain such as neural migration and synaptic growth...
CerebraLux

CerebraLux

This week we want to shed some light on a project from Robel Dagnew and colleagues from UCLA called CerebraLux, a wireless system for optogenetic stimulation. Optogenetic methods have been a crucial tool for understanding the role that certain neural cell populations...
