Optogenetic stimulation effectively enhances intrinsically generated network synchrony

Optogenetic stimulation effectively enhances intrinsically generated network synchrony

Synchronized bursting is found in many brain areas and has also been implicated in the pathophysiology of neuropsychiatric disorders such as epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease and schizophrenia. Despite extensive studies of network burst synchronization, it is insufficiently understood how this type of n...
