This project aims to enhance understanding of serotonin's role in brain functions by utilizing advanced optogenetic techniques. By manipulating serotonin neurons in real-time, the research seeks to establish connections between serotonin activity and specific behaviors, potentially leading to therapeutic advancements.
Serotonin (5-HT) is implicated in a wide spectrum of brain functions and disorders.
However, its functions remain controversial and enigmatic.
We suggest that past work on the 5-HT system have been significantly hampered by technical limitations in the selectivity and temporal resolution of the conventional pharmacological and electrophysiological methods that have been applied.
We therefore propose to apply novel optogenetic methods that will allow us to overcome these limitations and thereby g…
