OPTICAL-ELECTRICAL MODULATION OF CORTICAL NEURONAL ACTIVITIES IN THE PERFUSED TISSUE SLICE

Abstract

We here propose a new experimental technique to modulate cortical neuronal activities by a combination of laser light irradiation and electrical microstimulation in the tissue slice perfused with artificial cerebro-spinal fluid. This technique enables one to both excite and inhibit the neuron populations in a spatially confined manner.
