Optical probing of hemodynamic responses in vivo with channelrhodopsin-2

Maintenance of neuronal function depends on the timely delivery of oxygen and glucose through changes in blood flow that are linked to the level of ongoing neuronal and glial activity, yet the mechanisms underlying this stimulus-dependent control of blood flow remain unclear. Here, using transgenic...
