Our favourite #Platynereis #opsin now in the mammalian brain as a new #optogenetic tool!
"Here we ... found that the Platynereis dumerilii ciliary opsin ... is an efficient, versatile, light-activated bistable GPCR that can suppress synaptic transmission in mammalian neurons with high temporal precision in-vivo "

Ingenious #optogenetic manipulation of the heart and brain (i.e., posterior insula) shows that heart rate can modulate, but does not mediate, uncertainty-based arousal (in mice, by my clever #stanford colleagues):

I mean, count the number of publications with successful #chemogenetic manipulations versus successful #optogenetic manipulations that influence behavior in NHPs and draw your own conclusions about which is a more fruitful strategy for neuromodulation
New #preprint from our lab π :toot:
We report an iLID-nanobody fusion to enable #optogenetic recruitment to #GFP. This is potentially interesting when you already have a cell line or model organism expressing a GFP fusion protein.
