This BRAIN Initiative grant aims to significantly advance molecular tools for precisely monitoring and manipulating neural circuits in experimental animals. As a key component of the BRAIN Initiative Armamentarium for Brain Cell Access transformative project, this funding supports the iterative development and optimization of highly impactful molecular payloads. These tools are designed to be targetable to specific brain cell types, enabling detailed functional dissection of neural circuits. The focus is on creating technologies capable of both observing and controlling neural cell activity through innovative delivery and targeting mechanisms, ultimately enhancing our understanding of brain function.
