Working on new neuron sketches while listening to talks at the Canadian Pain Society meeting 😄✍️

This one is about optogenetics ✨

#canadianpain24

Scientists at CRCL apply #optogenetics techniques to control the oligomerization of #inflammasome ASC proteins in the lab, yielding a reliable tool to reproduce classical features of inflammasomes and #pyroptosis . scim.ag/6IJ

⚡️Excited to share that I've received funding from Human Cellular Neuroscience Platform to launch a new research line combining cell transplantation therapy 🔬 with optogenetics 🔦and fMRI 🧲🐭. Looking for two PhDs to join my new lab UNIGE_en. Please send me a PM or an email to know morel! Please RT!

Light switches on the brain

A new technique called optogenetics that uses light to control the activity of nerve cells is ushering in a world of remote-controlled animals, light-regulated genes and wireless brain implants

@nstherapeutics welcome Dr. Allen Ho to our team as Chief Medical Officer. Details: bit.ly/3JCDQjH #ophthalmology #retinitispigmentosa #stargardt #genetherapy #optogenetics

We love learning about how cutting-edge experimental methods are helping to advance the longevity field.

Matt Kaeberlein and researcher Brandon Berry discuss how the optogenetics field is helping us understand mitochondrial dysfunction.

The Mightex OASIS Implant is a ground-breaking platform for simultaneous cellular-resolution #optogenetics and #calciumimaging in freely-behaving animals to probe complex neuronal networks in the deep-brain, cortex, & multiple brain regions, or spinal cord. #neuroscience

Researchers in optogenetics can control genetically modified brain cells using light but because of these modifications, the technique is not yet deemed safe to use in humans.
