Research Abstract |
We have constructed a new 1020-site optical system for simultaneous recording of transmenbrane electrical activity, using a 34 x 34-element photodiode array. This new apparatus permits analysis of the spatio-temporal patterning of neural activity, such as action potentials and postsynaptic potentials, in the central nervous system, at higher spatial and temposal resolutions.
