optoclamp

Riley Zeller-Townson, a Georgia Tech Ph.D. student in Steve Potter’s lab, demonstrates preparation of a cell culture for placement into the optoclamp. The optoclamp uses a computer to acquire and process the neuronal response to optical stimuli in real-time and then vary the light input to maintain a desired firing rate.

Closing the Loop with Optogenetics

Researchers have created a technology called the optoclamp which closes the loop in optogenetic systems.
