New Publication – Robotic navigation to subcortical neural tissue for intracellular electrophysiology in vivo

Abstract: In vivo studies of neurophysiology using the whole cell patch-clamp technique enable exquisite access to both intracellular dynamics and cytosol of cells in the living brain but are underrepresented in deep subcortical nuclei because of fouling of the sensitive electrode tip. We have developed an autonomous method to navigate electrodes … More New Publication – Robotic navigation to subcortical neural tissue for intracellular electrophysiology in vivo

New Publication – Response reliability observed with voltage-sensitive dye imaging of cortical layer 2/3: the probability of activation hypothesis

A pervasive underlying assumption about sensory processing is that neural activity represents the world in a graded manner: the stronger the input, the stronger the response; the weaker the input, the weaker the response. In work from Dr. Clare Gollnick and colleagues, this assumption was directly considered and investigated through … More New Publication – Response reliability observed with voltage-sensitive dye imaging of cortical layer 2/3: the probability of activation hypothesis
