Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to elucidate how information is encoded and processed at the circuit, single neuron, and subcellular resolution in vivo, it is necessary to measure the activity of a specific neuronal cell type in a living animal. However, it has been difficult to resolve high frequency spiking of neurons, which is essential for deciphering the information code represented by individual neurons. Furthermore, there have been no methods for measuring the activities of more than 3 cell types simultaneously in vivo. Therefore, to overcome these problems, I succeeded in developing a series of neural activity sensors of ultrafast and multiple color palettes in vivo.
