The impact of anxiety and reward-seeking traits on social competition and the role of the mesolimbic dopaminergic system

Social hierarchies are established across a range of different taxa in the animal kingdom. Given that hierarchy inequalities are highly present in nowadays society and the health problems that low rank individuals suffer from this, it is surprising that no ...

Cell-Type-Specific Sensorimotor Processing in Striatal Projection Neurons during Goal-Directed Behavior

Carl Petersen, Sylvain Crochet, Tanya C Sippy, Damien Lapray

Goal-directed sensorimotor transformation drives important aspects of mammalian behavior. The striatum is thought to play a key role in reward-based learning and action selection, receiving glutamatergic sensorimotor signals and dopaminergic reward signals ...

Genetic targeting of chemical indicators in vivo

Kai Johnsson, Luc Reymond, Antonino Asaro

Fluorescent protein reporters have become the mainstay for tracing cellular circuitry in vivo but are limited in their versatility. Here we generated Cre-dependent reporter mice expressing the Snap-tag to target synthetic indicators to cells. Snap-tag labe ...

A Compressible Scaffold for Minimally Invasive Delivery of Large Intact Neuronal Networks

Philippe Renaud, Georg Fantner, Thomas Michael Braschler, Patrick Fraering, Oliver Peric, Amélie Barbara Hildegarde Béduer, Sébastien Mosser, Sidi Ahmed Bencherif

Millimeter to centimeter-sized injectable neural scaffolds based on macroporous cryogels are presented. The polymer-scaffolds are made from alginate and carboxymethyl-cellulose by a novel simple one-pot cryosynthesis. They allow surgical sterility by means ...

Integration of 2D and 3D Thin Film Glassy Carbon Electrode Arrays for Electrochemical Dopamine Sensing in Flexible Neuroelectronic Implants

Philippe Renaud, André Mercanzini, Jules John Vandersarl

Here we present the development and characterization of a flexible implantable neural probe with glassy carbon electrode arrays. The use of carbon electrodes allows for these devices to be used as chemical sensors, in addition to their typical use as elect ...

Detection of Optogenetic Stimulation in Somatosensory Cortex by Non-Human Primates - Towards Artificial Tactile Sensation

Fabien Bertrand Paul Wagner, David Allenson Borton

Neuroprosthesis research aims to enable communication between the brain and external assistive devices while restoring lost functionality such as occurs from stroke, spinal cord injury or neurodegenerative diseases. In future closed-loop sensorimotor prost ...

Cholinergic Signals in Mouse Barrel Cortex during Active Whisker Sensing

Carl Petersen, Sylvain Crochet, Yves Emile Alfred Kremer, Emmanuel Albert Eggermann

Internal brain states affect sensory perception, cognition, and learning. Many neocortical areas exhibit changes in the pattern and synchrony of neuronal activity during quiet versus active behaviors. Active behaviors are typically associated with desynchr ...

Cortical Control of Whisker Movement

Carl Petersen

Facial muscles drive whisker movements, which are important for active tactile sensory perception in mice and rats. These whisker muscles are innervated by cholinergic motor neurons located in the lateral facial nucleus. The whisker motor neurons receive s ...

Auditory responses to electric and infrared neural stimulation of the rat cochlear nucleus

Amélie Anne Guex

In an effort to improve the auditory brainstem implant, a prosthesis in which user outcomes are modest, we applied electric and infrared neural stimulation (INS) to the cochlear nucleus in a rat animal model. Electric stimulation evoked regions of neural a ...

1’000’000 resolved points along a Brillouin distributed fibre sensor

Luc Thévenaz, Marcelo Alfonso Soto Hernandez, Andrey Denisov

The challenge to resolve a record of one million points along a single optical fibre is demonstrated using a Brillouin distributed fibre sensor. The proposed system is based on a phase-correlation technique combined with a temporal pump gating, making poss ...
