Voltage Imaging
Applications in Voltage Imaging
A technology that simultaneously records membrane potential from multiple neurons in behaving animals will have a transformative effect on neuroscience research (1,2). Genetically encoded voltage indicators are a promising tool for these purposes; however, these have so far been limited to single-cell recordings with a marginal signal-to-noise ratio in vivo.
Bruker is actively developing solution for our customers pursuing this application. Please contact Bruker for more details or for opportunity to collaborate on this fascinating project.
