Two-photon microscopy is a powerful technique for investigating the structures and functions of biological systems. However, combining two-photon microscopy with other light sources, such as those used for driving optogenetic actuators, or for visual stimulation in...
The Raspberry PiVR, or the Pi Virtual Reality System, is a virtual reality tool created by David Tadres and Matthieu Louis to allow for the study of orientation behavior and neural circuit functions, through the creation and analysis of small, freely moving animals in...
Richard Warren, a graduate student in the Sawtell lab at Columbia University, recently shared his new open-source project called SignalBuddy: SignalBuddy is an easy-to-make, easy-to-use signal generator for scientific applications. Making friends is hard, but making...
Sebastien Delcasso from the Graybiel lab at MIT published a method for developing a brain implant called “HOPE” for combining with optogenetics, pharmacology, and electrophysiology: HOPE (hybrid-drive combining optogenetics, pharmacology, and electrophysiology) is a...
Carlos Ribeiro’s lab at Champalimaud recently published their new project called optoPAD in eLife: Both the analysis of behavior and of neural activity need to be time-precise in order to make any correlation or comparison to each other. The analysis of behavior can...
