Evaluating a genetically encoded optical sensor of neural activity using electrophysiology in intact adult fruit flies
Genetically encoded optical indicators hold the promise of enabling non-invasive monitoring of activity in identified neurons in behaving organisms. However, the interpretation of images of brain activity produced using such sensors is not straightforward. Several recent studies of sensory coding us...
