Flow of Information Underlying a Tactile Decision in Mice
Motor planning allows us to conceive, plan, and initiate skilled motor behaviors. Motor planning involves activity distributed widely across the cortex. How this activity dynamically comes together to guide mo...

Open AccessNeuronal Representation of Ultraviolet Visual Stimuli in Mouse Primary Visual Cortex
The mouse has become an important model for understanding the neural basis of visual perception. Although it has long been known that mouse lens transmits ultraviolet (UV) light and mouse opsins have absorptio...

A motor cortex circuit for motor planning and movement
Activity in motor cortex predicts specific movements seconds before they occur, but how this preparatory activity relates to upcoming movements is obscure. We dissected the conversion of preparatory activity t...

Multiplexed aberration measurement for deep tissue imaging in vivo
An adaptive optics method using multiplexed light measurement and modulation in multiple pupil segments improves structural and functional in vivo imaging over large volumes in strongly scattering mouse brain wit...

Optimized ratiometric calcium sensors for functional in vivo imaging of neurons and T lymphocytes
A collection of improved FRET-based calcium biosensors, called Twitch sensors, is described. Twitches have a reduced number of calcium binding sites per sensor and display high sensitivity in in vivo imaging expe...

Ultrasensitive fluorescent proteins for imaging neuronal activity
Fluorescent calcium sensors are widely used to image neural activity. Using structure-based mutagenesis and neuron-based screening, we developed a family of ultrasensitive protein calcium sensors (GCaMP6) that...

An optimized fluorescent probe for visualizing glutamate neurotransmission
A single-wavelength genetically encoded sensor of extracellular glutamate is reported. The sensor—iGluSnFR—is bright and photostable under both one- and two-photon illumination and is shown to work for in vivo im...
