X-Optogenetics and U-Optogenetics: Feasibility and Possibilities
Optogenetics is an established technique that uses visible light to modulate membrane voltage in neural cells. Although optogenetics allows researchers to study parts of the brain like never before, it is limited because it is invasive, and visible light

Step Sequence is a Critical Gait Parameter of Unilateral 6-OHDA Parkinson's Rat Models
Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurological disorder, marked by the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the nigrostriatal pathway that leads to abnormal gait, rigidity, slowness of movement, and tremor.

Rods progressively escape saturation to drive visual responses in daylight conditions
Rod photoreceptors are thought to be saturated under bright light. Here, the authors describe the physiological parameters that mediate response saturation of rod photoreceptors in mouse retina, and show that rods can drive visual responses in photopic ...
