Topic1: Some interesting techniques based on Optogenetic approach
Speaker: Yan Xingjian(閆行?。?From Poo’s lab
Topic2: optogenetics――besides electrophysiology
Speaker: Li Yiding(李一?。?From Zhang Xiaohui’s lab

Place: Room 430, ION Building
We look forward to seeing you!
時逢這周五下午Pro. Luis de Lecea將在所里做一個有關optogenetic的Colloquium, journal Club也趁機邀請到蒲組的閆行健和章組的李一丁(兩位同學在optogenetic的應用方面都有豐富的經(jīng)驗,前者in vivo,后者in vitro)來JC介紹一下optogenetic,算是拋磚引玉吧,希望大家共聚一堂暢聊optogenetic的現(xiàn)狀、應用及未來。
下面是他們倆各自將要介紹的abstract:
?。‵rom Yan Xingjian) Optogenetic is a powerful technique for neuroscientist to study neurophysiology problem by manipulating certain type of neurons specifically. Many published paper have already demonstrate its ability to conquer the unsolved the problem, and by the increasing number of available vectors, transgenic mice and other related sources, optogenetic approach would undoubtedly become a basic tool for regular neuroscience study. To embrace the new technique and better understand its application scope, in the coming journal club, I will share my knowledge and experience in optogenetic study and also introduce some interesting techniques which have been developed base on the optogenetic approach.
?。‵rom Li Yiding) optogenetics在electrophysiology中的應用,想必大家都是有目共睹的了,但是optogenetics的強大卻非僅限于electrophysiology。我主要review一下近期optogenetics在imaging以及molecular and cellular biology里的應用,向大家傳達一個概念:optogenetics確實是一個劃時代的技術,可以滲透到各個領域,只要你想得到!同時也是介紹最新的技術進展,希望給大家設計實驗的時候提供新的想法和思路。
另特別希望做分子細胞的同學來聽聽,希望你們也能多了解一些optogenetics,謝謝!
