Next-generation transgenic mice for optogenetic analysis of neural circuits
Next-generation transgenic mice for optogenetic analysis of neural circuits is a scholarly work by Karl Deisseroth, Carolin Hoffmann, Ryuichi Nakajima, James J. Mancuso, Masanori Matsuzaki, Haruo Kasai, and George James Augustine, published in 2013 in ''Frontiers in neural circuits''. The main subjects of the publication include transgene, optogenetics, biology, synaptic plasticity, brain implant, neuroscience, Photostimulation, genetically modified mouse, neuron, cell biology, Channelrhodopsin, biological neural network, and halorhodopsin. The authors characterize several new lines of transgenic mice useful for optogenetic analysis of brain circuit function.
