Innovative Neurotechnologies Scientific Interest Group

The Innovative Neurotechnologies Scientific Interest Group, formerly called the Optogenetics Interest Group, meets to discuss and share knowledge on recent technical and scientific advances in the field of optogenetics. Topics discussed have included novel opsins, how-tos on setting up equipment, research findings, optical imaging, among others. In general, we have one presenter, followed by an open discussion period.

This group meets monthly for the purpose of sharing information and discussing new advances in optogenetics among researchers at the NIH. The group is open to beginners and experienced users of any optogenetic technologies.
