Lecture Brain-wide networks underlying behavior - Insights from functional ultrasound imaging
11/02/2021 12:39 Brain-wide networks underlying behavior - Insights from functional ultrasound imagingDr. Emilie Macé | Max Planck Institute of Neurobiology, Martinsried, GermanyTue, Nov 02, 12:30 |
Functional ultrasound imaging (fUS) is an emerging neuroimaging tool capable of measuring brain-wide vascular signals linked to neuronal activity with a high spatial-temporal resolution (100 µm, 10 Hz) in real-time. This technology is portable, affordable and adaptable to many species, and has already found applications in areas ranging from basic research to the clinic. Focusing on fundamental neuroscience, I will outline some of the recent technical advancements of fUS, such as the capacity to image the entire rodent brain while manipulating specific neuronal circuits with optogenetics. I will exemplify how promising this imaging technique is for shedding new light on the brain-wide circuits underlying behavior, as fUS is one of the few methods that enables imaging of activity deep in the brain of behaving mice.
