Deskripsi
Currently, bidirectional control of activity in the same neurons in the same experiment is difficult. Here the authors report a Bidirectional Pair of Opsins for Light-induced Excitation and Silencing, BiPOLES, which they use in a range of organisms including worms, fruit flies, mice and ferrets.
