Remote Optogenetics Using Up/Down-Conversion Phosphors
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021 Microbial rhodopsins widely used for optogenetics are sensitive to light in the visible spectrum. As visible light is heavily scattered and absorbed by tissue, stimulating light for optogenetic control does not reach deep in the tissue irradiated from ...

American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 2013 Optogenetics is an emerging technology for optical interrogation and control of biological function with high specificity and high spatiotemporal resolution. Mammalian cells and tissues can be sensitized to respond to light by a relatively simple and well-tolerated genetic modification using microbial opsins (light-gated ion channels and pumps).

Phase Diagram of Spiking Neural Networks [PDF]
, 2014 In computer simulations of spiking neural networks, often it is assumed that every two neurons of the network are connected by a probability of 2\%, 20\% of neurons are inhibitory and 80\% are excitatory.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Thermoelectric temperature sensors are developed that directly measure heat changes during optical‐based neural stimulation with millisecond precision. The sensors reveal the temperature windows for safe reversible neural modulation: 1.4–4.5 °C enables reversible neural inhibition, while temperatures above 6.1 °C cause permanent thermal damage.

Optogenetics: implications for Alzheimer’s disease research and therapy
Molecular Brain, 2022 Alzheimer’s disease (AD), a critical neurodegenerative condition, has a wide range of effects on brain activity. Synaptic plasticity and neuronal circuits are the most vulnerable in Alzheimer’s disease, but the exact mechanism is unknown.
