Informational lesions: optical perturbation of spike timing and neural synchrony via microbial opsin gene fusions
Synchronous neural activity occurs throughout the brain in association with normal and pathological brain functions. Despite theoretical work exploring how such neural coordination might facilitate neural computation and be corrupted in disease states, it has proven difficult to test experimentally...
