Overview
Fiber Photometry is a form of calcium imaging in which gross neural activity levels are measured from select populations of neurons across time.

Research Highlights using OASIS Implant
(Pharmaceutics 2022).
The cingulate cortex (CC) is a key brain region in the limbic system that coordinates actions and motivational behaviors. Somatostatin-expressing GABAergic neurons in the cingulate cortex (CCSST) can provide powerful inhibition to the CC circuitry through high basal firing activity and synchronized firing.
The video shows Ca2+ activity of somatostation-expressing cingulate cortex neurons during social interaction collected using the Mightex OASIS Implant system.
