This volume provides researchers with up-to-date protocols and takes a
close look at current research and promising applications. Optogenetics:
Methods and Protocols contains a collection of recently developed technical
protocols on optogenetic applications in neuroscience, brain mapping, treatment
of neurological disorders, and restoration of visual function. Several
introductory and discussion chapters offer a wide overview about sources and
diversity of optogenetic tools, design strategies, and potential applications
in other fields like plant research. Written in the highly successful Methods
in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their
respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step,
readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and
avoiding known pitfalls.
Cutting edge and thorough, Optogenetic: Methods and Protocols, delivers
an interdisciplinary view of optogenetic applications and its potential to
develop as a valuable tool for basic research, as well as biomedical and
biotechnological applications.
