Journal ArticleDOI

Imaging neural activity in worms, flies and mice with improved GCaMP calcium indicators

TL;DR: A single-wavelength GCaMP2-based GECI (GCaMP3) is developed, with increased baseline fluorescence, increased dynamic range and higher affinity for calcium, and long-term imaging in the motor cortex of behaving mice revealed large fluorescence changes in imaged neurons over months.
Journal ArticleDOI

An optimized fluorescent probe for visualizing glutamate neurotransmission

TL;DR: An intensity-based glutamate-sensing fluorescent reporter with signal-to-noise ratio and kinetics appropriate for in vivo imaging is described and its utility for visualizing glutamate release by neurons and astrocytes in increasingly intact neurological systems is validated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional imaging of hippocampal place cells at cellular resolution during virtual navigation

TL;DR: Methods for imaging the activity of neurons in the CA1 region of the hippocampus with subcellular resolution in behaving mice with the combination of virtual reality and high-resolution functional imaging are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrafast neuronal imaging of dopamine dynamics with designed genetically encoded sensors

TL;DR: The development and validation of dLight1 is reported, a novel suite of intensity-based genetically encoded dopamine indicators that enables ultrafast optical recording of neuronal dopamine dynamics in behaving mice and permits robust detection of physiologically and behaviorally relevant dopamine transients.
