Title: ” Modular High-Density Optoelectrodes for Local Circuit Analysis”
BRAIN Category: Large-Scale Recording-Modulation – New Technologies (RFA NS-14-007)

In this project, Dr. Yoon’s team will make devices for optogenetics, a technique that enables scientists to turn neurons on and off with flashes of light, more precise and diverse by integrating multiple light sources in such a way as to enable the control of specific neuronal circuits.
