These findings were confirmed by two - photon imaging of neurons in the brains of living mice by the lab of collaborator Yi Zuo, PhD, a neuroscientist at UC Santa Cruz, as well
as electrophysiological recordings from neurons in brain slices by the lab of collaborator Vikaas Sohal, MD, PhD, an associate professor of psychiatry at UCSF.

Advances in optical imaging and optogenetics combined with
electrophysiological recordings enable Albeanu and colleagues to monitor and / or alter patterns of activity at unprecedented synaptic and millisecond resolution, in real time,
as animals are engaged in various behaviors.
But, rather than studying the entire nervous system of a single model organism, Professor Graybiel has studied one brain region — a portion of the basal ganglia known
as the striatum — in mice, rats, cats, monkeys, and humans using a whole range of technologies from microscopy through
electrophysiological recordings to genetics.
To this aim we have screened our
electrophysiological recordings of the magnocellular neurons, previously obtained from acute slices, with an analysis of autocorrelation of action potentials to detect a rhythmic drive
as we recently did for organotypic cultures.
