May 5, 2020
It will now be possible to study brain activity when timing is important, such as the consolidation of memory. A technique for studying individual circuits in the brains of mice has been hampered because the light needed to stimulate neural activity briefly overwhelms the electrodes “listening” for the response. Now, improved shielding within the neural […]
