Abstract |
Selective perturbation of the activity of specific cell types in the brain tissue is essential in understanding the function of neuronal circuits involved in cognition and behavior and might also provide therapeutic neuromodulation strategies. Such selective neuronal addressing can be achieved through the optical activation of light-sensitive proteins called opsins that are expressed in specific cell populations through genetic methods-hence the name "optogenetics." In optogenetic experiments, the electrical activity of the targeted cell populations is optically triggered and monitored using arrays of microelectrodes. In closed-loop studies, the optical stimulation parameters are adjusted based on the recorded activity, ideally in real time. Here we describe the basic tools and the protocols allowing closed-loop optogenic experiments in vivo. |
