calcium indicator

We present a modular approach for analyzing calcium imaging recordings of large neuronal ensembles. Our goal is to simultaneously… Expand

Brain function relies on communication between large populations of neurons across multiple brain areas, a full understanding of… Expand

The basal ganglia are subcortical nuclei that control voluntary actions, and they are affected by a number of debilitating… Expand

Genetically encoded calcium indicators (GECIs) are powerful tools for systems neuroscience. Recent efforts in protein engineering… Expand

Neurons in the nervous system can change their functional properties over time. At present, there are no techniques that allow… Expand

Glial cells have been identified as key signaling components in the brain; however, methods to investigate their structure and… Expand

Spontaneous local increases in the concentration of intracellular calcium, called "calcium sparks," were detected in quiescent… Expand

The role of calcium in cortical granule exocytosis and activation of the cell cycle at fertilization was examined in the mouse… Expand

METHODS for measuring plant cytoplasmic calcium using micro-electrodes or microinjected fluorescent dyes are associated with… Expand

The finding that astrocytes possess glutamate-sensitive ion channels hinted at a previously unrecognized signaling role for these… Expand
