Advancements in neurotechnologies for electrophysiology, neurochemical sensing,
neuromodulation, and optogenetics are revolutionizing scientific understanding of the brain …

This review focuses on the application of nanomaterials for neural interfacing. The junction
between nanotechnology and neural tissues can be particularly worthy of scientific attention …

Optical techniques have revolutionized the investigation of cardiac cellular physiology and
advanced our understanding of basic mechanisms of electrical activity, calcium …

Electric fields affect any process or transition that involves the movement of charge. Stark
spectroscopy is a general term describing the study of spectral changes in the presence of …

Methods to record action potential (AP) firing in many individual neurons are essential to
unravel the function of complex neuronal circuits in the brain. A promising approach is bolus …

In this review, we present the voltage-sensitive dye imaging (VSDI) method. The possibility
offered for in vivo (and in vitro) brain imaging is unprecedented in terms of spatial and …

Nonlinear microscopy has proven to be essential for neuroscience investigations of thick
tissue preparations. However, the optical recording of fast (∼ 1 msec) cellular electrical …

Here we review some properties and functions of backpropagating action potentials in the
dendrites of mammalian CNS neurones. We focus on three main aspects: firstly the current …

Although nonlinear microscopy and fast (∼ 1 ms) membrane potential (V m) recording have
proven valuable for neuroscience applications, their potentially powerful combination has …

This chapter presents three examples of imaging brain activity with voltage-or calcium-
sensitive dyes. Because experimental measurements are limited by low sensitivity, the …
