A Reward-Based Behavioral Platform to Measure Neural Activity during Head-Fixed Behavior

Understanding the neural computations that contribute to behavior requires recording from neurons while an animal is behaving. This is not an easy task as most subcellular recording techniques require absolute head stability. The Go/No-Go sensory task is a powerful decision-driven task that enables...
