Brief Description: Inventors at Stanford have developed a novel fiber-optic technology to achieve unprecedented sensitivity and immunity to motion artifacts that can be used in freely moving animals.
Researchers in Dr. Karl Deisseroth's lab have developed a selective approach to treat anxiety. Anxiety is characterized by several features that are coordinately regulated by diverse neuronal system outputs.
Researchers in Prof. Mark Schnitzer's laboratory have developed a two-photon scanning microscope for imaging neural activity in a 2x2mm field of view while maintaining a fast scanning rate (~10Hz image update frequency).
Stanford researchers have developed a wirelessly powered, fully internal implant which allows for optogenetic control of neurons throughout the nervous system in mammals, and in particular, mice.
Researchers in Prof. Karl Deisseroth's laboratory have developed a highly precise, scalable optical system for imaging or controlling thousands of individual neurons in the 3D volume accessible with a single multiphoton fluorescent microscope objective.
