DeepLabCut (DLC), a toolbox for markerless pose estimation, offers the ability to track user-defined features in 3-dimensions with human level accuracy. We demonstrate a hybrid method utilizing DLC and optogenetic motor mapping to localize the movements of multiple modalities to the mouse cortex. We outline a pipeline to map and characterize multiple motor representations in anesthetized and awake mice. Furthermore, we identify behaviorally-relevant motor movements of multiple limbs reside in overlapping cortical representations of the respective limbs.","PeriodicalId":189801,"journal":{"name":"Optical Techniques in Neurosurgery, Neurophotonics, and Optogenetics","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116023755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The presented approach is the first step towards scaling up a full fiber optic cap with 96 source channels and 192 custom-made single-photon detectors which will cover most of an adult head.","PeriodicalId":189801,"journal":{"name":"Optical Techniques in Neurosurgery, Neurophotonics, and Optogenetics","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122042683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we present OCT guided ultrafast laser based non-viral targeted delivery PEDF-encoding genes to retina for neuroprotection. The ultrafast laser gene delivery showed layer-specific reliable expression of PEDF gene in retina without any detectable damage. Monitoring of IOP and electroretinogram after ultrafast laser transfection showed no adverse changes. The ultrafast laser transfection of large PEDF genes in retina exhibited significant therapeutic benefit in an injury model. Absence of any immune response in retina subsequent to ultrafast-laser transfection provides unique opportunity for repeated dosing.","PeriodicalId":189801,"journal":{"name":"Optical Techniques in Neurosurgery, Neurophotonics, and Optogenetics","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117020973","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
