Cortical axons, isolated in channels, display activity-dependent signal modulation as a result of targeted stimulation
Mammalian cortical axons are extremely thin processes that are difficult to study as a result of their small diameter: they are too narrow to patch while intact, and super-resolution microscopy is needed to resolve single axons. We present a method for studying axonal physiology by pairing a high-de...
