Single-cell electroporation is performed via patch pipette and under 2-photon visual guidance in vivo. A short voltage pulse train is applied through the pipette to deliver RNA molecules into a targeted cell. The video below shows this process in cortical neurons expressing GCaMP6s.

Gene editing of single, targeted neurons in vivo is now feasible. We are proud to present our preprint for highly efficient single-cell electroporation using RNA. With @alex-fratzl.bsky.social, @munzlab.bsky.social, Botond Roska @iobswiss.bsky.social #neuroskyence www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

🧠👁️ How does your eye prevent seeing a scrambled world? @anbucci.bsky.social and @ffranke.bsky.social reveal the eye's secret "clockwork": bigger axons = faster signals = perfect visual timing! 📖 Full paper nature.com/articles/s41593-025-02011-3 #Vision #AcademicSky #Neuroscience #Retina Image ©IOB

🔬 Thrilled to share that our latest research on how the retina synchronizes visual signals has been featured by Medical Xpress! 🧠👁️ It’s exciting to see our work reaching a broader audience. Huge thanks to Medical Xpress for highlighting it! #neuroskyence #retina #VisualProcessing

Finally it's out! www.nature.com/articles/s41... How flexible are essential innate behaviours and their underlying neural circuits? @felixbaier.bsky.social & I, with Hopi Hoekstra and @farrowlab.bsky.social, addressed this by studying the #evolution of threat avoidance in Peromyscus mice.

1/ Mapping synaptic connectivity between individual neurons is extremely laborious. We developed BRISC, a new method that makes it possible to map inputs onto 100s of neurons in the same animal in a matter of weeks! Led by Alex Becalick and @antblot.bsky.social. 🧵 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
