The localization and measurement of neuronal activity magnitude at high spatial and temporal resolution are essential for mapping and better understanding neuronal systems and mechanisms. One such example is the generation of retinotopic maps, which correlates localized retinal stimulation with the corresponding specific visual cortex responses. He...

Since the first description of its remarkable cellular organization by Woolsey and Van der Loos (1970), the whiskers representation in the rodent primary somatosensory cortex (S1) has become a major model for studying the cortical processing of tactile sensory information. In its layer 4, neurons form clusters, called barrels, that share the same t...

Cortical sensory systems are active with rich patterns of activity during sleep and under light anesthesia. Remarkably, this activity shares many characteristics with those present when the awake brain responds to sensory stimuli. We review two specific forms of such activity: slow-wave activity (SWA) in the adult brain and spindle bursts in develo...

The rodent barrel cortex is a widely used model to study the cortical processing of tactile sensory information. It is notable by the cytoarchitecture of its layer IV, which contains distinguishable structural units called barrels that can be considered as anatomical landmarks of the functional columnar organization of the cerebral cortex. To study...

Understanding neuronal physiology requires to record electrical activity in many small and remote compartments such as dendrites, axon or dendritic spines. To do so, electrophysiology has long been the tool of choice, as it allows recording very subtle and fast changes in electrical activity. However, electrophysiological measurements are mostly li...

We report a functional optical coherence tomography cross-sectional scanner to detect neural activity using unmyelinated nerves dissected from squid. The nerves, unstained or stained with a voltage-sensitive dye, were imaged in a nerve chamber. Transient phase changes from backscattered light were detected during action potential propagation. The r...

Information processing in the central nervous system makes use of densely woven networks of neurons with complex dendritic and axonal arborizations. Studying signaling in such a network requires precise control over the activity of specific neurons and an understanding how the synaptic signals are integrated. We established a system using a recentl...
