Cellular resolution circuit mapping with temporal-focused excitation of soma-targeted channelrhodopsin

We describe refinements in optogenetic methods for circuit mapping that enable measurements of functional synaptic connectivity with single-neuron resolution. By expanding a two-photon beam in the imaging plane using the temporal focusing method and restricting channelrhodopsin to the soma and proxi...
