Combined electrophysiological and optical recording of multi-scale neural circuit dynamics

Chris Lewis · University of Zurich

Tue, Apr 30, 2024 · 14:00 UTC

This webinar will showcase new approaches for electrophysiological recordings using our silicon neural probes and surface arrays combined with diverse optical methods such as wide-field or 2-photon imaging, fiber photometry, and optogenetic perturbations in awake, behaving mice. Multi-modal recording of single units and local field potentials across cortex, hippocampus and thalamus alongside calcium activity via GCaMP6F in cortical neurons in triple-transgenic animals or in hippocampal astrocytes via viral transduction are brought to bear to reveal hitherto inaccessible and under-appreciated a

Cell-type-specific plasticity shapes neocortical dynamics for motor learning

Shouvik Majumder · Max Planck Florida Institute of Neuroscience, USA

Thu, Apr 18, 2024 · 14:00 UTC

How do cortical circuits acquire new dynamics that drive learned movements? This webinar will focus on mouse premotor cortex in relation to learned lick-timing and explore high-density electrophysiology using our silicon neural probes alongside region and cell-type-specific acute genetic manipulations of proteins required for synaptic plasticity.
