Computational models of optogenetic tools for controlling neural circuits with light
Computational models of optogenetic tools for controlling neural circuits with light is a scholarly work by Sarah Jarvis and Simon R Schultz, published in 2013 in ''Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society''. The main subjects of the publication include physics, halorhodopsin, optogenetics, neural engineering, biological neural network, computer science, neuroscience, light field, Receptive field, Channelrhodopsin, and brain implant. The authors show that whole-cell illumination of halorhodopsin most effectively hyperpolarizes the neuron and is able to silence the cell even when driving input is present.
