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
