Development and Application of pH-sensitive Fluorescent Probes to Study Synaptic Activity in the Brain

This thesis describes efforts at the interface of chemistry and neuroscience to design and characterize fluorescent probes capable of tracing neurotransmitters from individual release sites in brain tissue. As part of the Fluorescent False Neurotransmitters (FFNs) program, small organic fluorophores...
