Photoreceptor and optogenetics research
This cluster of papers focuses on the application of optogenetics in neuroscience and biophysics research, particularly the use of microbial rhodopsins such as Channelrhodopsin for precise control and manipulation of neural activity. It covers topics such as neural stimulation, photocycle dynamics, and in vivo control of neural circuitry using light-sensitive proteins. The research also explores the molecular mechanisms and biophysical principles underlying optogenetic tools.
Papers listed on taxonomy pages are the top few works per node from the OpenAlex snapshot. That list is not exhaustive and is not an endorsement. The topic map and the journal registry remain separate: there is still no authoritative topic-to-venue or topic-to-organization edge. Search is a lexical lookup, not a claim that a venue publishes a topic.
