Imaging Voltage with Microbial Rhodopsins

Membrane potential is the critical parameter that reflects the excitability of a neuron, and it is usually measured by electrophysiological recordings with electrodes. However, this is an invasive approach that is constrained by the problems of lacking spatial resolution and genetic specificity. Rec...
