Research Abstract |
Using adenoviral transfection, Channelrhodopsin-2 was expressed only onto specific Purkinje cells with the same birthday. Since the ChR2-positive Purkinje cells make remarkable microstructures within cerebellar cortex, I made a method to locally activate the Purkinje cells within the same structure and studied the effects on cerebellar network. I also applied the same method to mouse visual cortex.
