Research Abstract |
To understand how the brain works, it is desirable to visualize neuronal activity in the neuronal network and to evaluate the effect of blockade or stimulation of neuronal activity. Electrical activity of the neurons can be indirectly monitored by measuring the calcium influx via voltage-dependent calcium channels. We used zebrafish larvae as a model system to visualize neuronal activity in a specific subset of neurons. Furthermore, we developed optogenetic tools that can be applied in manipulation of neuronal activity
