Abstract:
Mammalian cortical neurons integrate sensory information that arrives through numerous synaptic inputs located on their dendrites. Here we introduce an approach to identify sensory-evoked dendritic input sites in cortical neurons in vivo involving the use of two-photon calcium imaging combined with targeted whole-cell recordings. We provide basic technical descriptions as well as experimental procedures of this method. First, we discuss various scanning modes for two-photon imaging of cortical n...     »
