High fidelity optogenetic control of individual prefrontal cortical pyramidal neurons in vivo [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/Q6e8CJ]
Precise spatial and temporal manipulation of neural activity in specific genetically defined cell populations is now possible with the advent of optogenetics. The emerging field of optogenetics consists of a set of naturally-occurring and engineered light-sensitive membrane proteins that are able to...
