A toolbox of Cre-dependent optogenetic transgenic mice for light-induced activation and silencing [PDF]
, 2011 We report on wide-field optically detected magnetic resonance imaging of nitrogen-vacancy centers (NVs) in type IIa polycrystalline diamond. These studies reveal a heterogeneous crystalline environment that produces a varied density of NV centers ...

Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective For over four decades, the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr) has been recognized as a critical structure in the modulation of seizure activity. Pharmacological and optogenetic inhibition of the SNr produces robust seizure suppression in a range of seizure models.

Exploring adult hippocampal neurogenesis using optogenetics [PDF]
, 2018 In the 1980s, it was widely accepted that new neurons are continuously generated in the dentate gyrus of the mammalian hippocampus. Since its acceptance, researchers have employed various techniques and behavioral paradigms to study the proliferation ...

Flash Memory: Photochemical Imprinting of Neuronal Action Potentials onto a Microbial Rhodopsin [PDF]
, 2015 We developed a technique, “flash memory”, to record a photochemical imprint of the activity state—firing or not firing—of a neuron at a user-selected moment in time. The key element is an engineered microbial rhodopsin protein with three states.

Characterizing optogenetically mediated rebound effects in anaesthetized mouse primary visual cortex
The Journal of Physiology, Volume 603, Issue 16, Page 4609-4636, 15 August 2025.Abstract figure legend Many studies of cortical circuits use optogenetic activation of inhibitory interneurons to suppress pyramidal cell activity, but after the light is turned off pyramidal cells sometimes show excess spiking, which is called a post‐inhibitory rebound.

Central Amygdala Somatostatin Neurons Gate Passive and Active Defensive Behaviors [PDF]
, 2016 The central amygdala (CeA) has a key role in learning and expression of defensive responses. Recent studies indicate that somatostatin-expressing (SOM(+)) neurons in the lateral division of the CeA (CeL) are essential for the acquisition and recall of ...

Output from VIP cells of the mammalian central clock regulates daily physiological rhythms [PDF]
, 2020 The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) circadian clock is critical for optimising daily cycles in mammalian physiology and behaviour. The roles of the various SCN cell types in communicating timing information to downstream physiological systems remain ...
