Utility of red‐light ultrafast optogenetic stimulation of the auditory pathway

Abstract Optogenetic stimulation of spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) in the ear provides a future alternative to electrical stimulation used in current cochlear implants. Here, we employed fast and very fast variants of the red‐light‐activated channelrhodopsin (ChR) Chrimson (f‐Chrimson and vf‐Chrimso...
