Zoe Christenson-Wick is a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow at Mount Sinai Medical School and will describe the development and use of PhaSER; a low-latency open-source tool which allows her to perform real-time oscillatory phase estimation and apply optogenetic manipulations at precise phases of hippocampal theta during high-density electrophysiological recordings in head-fixed mice while they navigate a virtual environment.

Nuo Li (Baylor College of Medicine, USA) shares novel insights into coordinated interhemispheric large-scale neural network activity underpinning short-term memory in mice. Relevant techniques covered include: simultaneous multi-regional recordings using multiple 64-channel H probes during head-fixed behaviour in mice. simultaneous optogenetics and population recording. analysis of population recordings to infer interactions between brain regions.

Join the talented Ali Weber from Tom Daniel's lab and learn how she used our probes in a novel insect preparation to record from sensorimotor neurons controlling the moth wing. Insights on how moths solve the problems of aerodynamic feedback are brought to light leading to an interesting discussion on how this relates to other animal systems in neuroscience.
In this webinar we explore the use of probes beyond the central nervous system... Joze Guzman (Institute of Molecular Biology, Austria) presents a unique insight in to the emerging field of human brain organoids and describes how he has optimised this preparation for single unit recording with optogenetic identification. In tandem, Roberto Lopez (University of Michigan) shows how he has used our probes to uncover highly novel single unit functional organisation within the adrenal medulla during...
Hear from leading-lights within the behaving marmoset field: Patrick Jendritza (Ernst Strungman Institute) describes his multi-target chronic probe implants across the visual cortices, encompassing 196-channel recording of single units with optogenetics for > 1 year in each animal. Reza Shadmehr and Paul Hage (Johns Hopkins University) describe their innovative approach for daily acute probe penetration spanning many months in head-fixed behaving marmoset to record cerebellar Purkinje cells;...
Join us for an in-depth presentation by Tahl Holtzman (Founder of Cambridge NeuroTech) covering a general introduction to using our silicon neural probes alongside optogenetic applications in acute and chronic experiments. Surgical approaches for chronic implantation of probes + fibers are also covered. Also hear Huub Terra (Vrije University Amsterdam) describe how he has applied chronically implanted probes with co-aligned fiber cannulas for optogenetic identification of medial prefrontal...
In this double-bill webinar Tahl Holtzman (Founder of Cambridge NeuroTech) offers a general introduction to using our silicon neural probes in a variety of experimental settings encompassing anaesthetised, head-fixed and freely-behaving studies. Surgical approaches for chronic implantation are also covered. Nelson Totah (University of Helsinki) describes how he has applied chronically implanted probes to boost his single unit data yields in head-fixed behaving rats working on a GO / NO-GO task).
