Principal Investigator: Lin Tian
UC Davis Neuroscience
Title: ” Genetically encoded sensors for the biogenic amines: watching neuromodulation in action”
BRAIN Category: Large-Scale Recording-Modulation – New Technologies (RFA NS-14-007)

Dr. Tian and her colleagues will create sensors that will allow researchers to see how molecules like dopamine, norepinephrine and serotonin regulate activity of neural circuits and behavior in living animals.
