Movies

A few movies from our microscopes — neural activity, imaging and two-photon photostimulation from the lab.

Large scale two-photon calcium imaging (PacOp Avocado objective)

Cortical elevation map in V1 measured through somatostatin interneurons

Voltage imaging of visual responses with ASAP7y

Cortical elevation map (first pass, 3 Hz)

Fireworks drawn in neural activity with two-photon photostimulation

Spiral, ring, heart and rocket patterns. Trial-averaged ΔF/F, 5× real time.

Stick-figure animation in neural activity

Trial-averaged ΔF/F, 3× real time.

Travelling wavefront of two-photon photostimulation

A band of stimulation sweeps around the field of view. Trial-averaged ΔF/F.

Two-photon photostimulation of random neuronal ensembles

Twenty ensembles of individually targeted cell bodies, stimulated in turn. Trial-averaged ΔF/F, 3× real time.
