Bioluminescent optogenetic (BL-OG) activation of neurons during mouse postnatal brain development

Summary: Bioluminescent optogenetics (BL-OG) allows activation of photosensory proteins, such as opsins, by either fiberoptics or by administering a luciferin. BL-OG thus confers both optogenetic and chemogenetic access within the same genetically targeted neuron. This bimodality offers a powerful a...
