Dr. Ofer Yizhar: Optogenetic control of synaptic transmission with bistable rhodopsins

DMCBH Room 3402 2215 Wesbrook Mall, Vancouver

Abstract: Long-range synaptic transmission between brain regions allows synchrony and coordination between neural circuits and is the foundation for complex information processing and behavior. For example, outputs from the prefrontal cortex to diverse subcortical circuits are crucial for regulation of learning, decision-making, and social behavior. Optogenetics has allowed unprecedented advances in understanding the causal roles […]
