Researchers Develop High-Precision Dual-Color Optogenetic Brain Probe
AMHERST, Mass., Dec. 26, 2023 — Optogenetics promises to manipulate brain circuitry by exciting or inhibiting neurons with different wavelengths of light. Until now, neural probes have largely been limited to single colors, only capable of either excitation or inhibition. Probes with close-packed dual-color light sources have proven elusive due to difficulties in integrating the necessary technology. Now, researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst have developed a dual color optogenetic neural
