stanford university
Fiscal Year
Funding Opportunities Number
RFA-MH-17-245
Project Number
1RF1MH116977-01
Project Abstract Completely noninvasive neuromodulation using focused ultrasound (FUS) offers the promise of precisely stimulating specific targets deep in the brain, at power levels commonly used for diagnostic imaging studies. Having a working mouse model to study neuromodulation with ultrasound i
TitleWhole-brain recording into nucleic acids using template-independent polymerases
Investigator
Keith Edward Jaggard Tyo
Institute
northwestern university
Fiscal Year
Funding Opportunities Number
RFA-NS-17-003
Project Number
1UF1NS107697-01
PROJECT SUMMARY This proposal aims to record and store neural activity into DNA/RNA strands with high spatial and temporal resolution, enabling neural activity recording densely within local circuits, yet broadly across large scale neural circuits, and potentially across the entire brain.
