New calcium reporter for two-photon imaging in vivo

by 96well in Reportergene

Neural networks evolve their functional features over time. At present, no techniques allow detailed neuron recording over repeated experimental session: the only method to repeatedly recording single cell activity in vivo is by means of chronically implanted electrodes. Unfortunately, with electrophysiology, cell death and gliosis give some uncertainty in monitoring the same neuron over months, while imaging techniques may solve such problem allowing unequivocal identification of the neural cel........
