Direct imaging of hippocampal epileptiform calcium motifs following kainic acid administration in freely behaving mice

Prolonged exposure to abnormally high calcium concentrations is thought to be a core mechanism underlying hippocampal damage in epileptic patients; however, no prior study has characterized calcium activity during seizures in the live, intact hippocampus. We have directly investigated this possibili...
