Functional Neuroconnectomics: from active neurons to complex behavior
University of Bonn
Empirical & clinical neuroscience
About this course
Topics covered include:
- rAAV-guided engram labeling techniques (Cal-Light, SomCal-Light, FLARE)
- Tissue engineering (FluoClearBABB, ExM)
- Large-field superresolution microscopy
- AI-guided behavioral classification
- Multifactorial behavioral classification
Learning outcomes
Students will be introduced to molecular, tissue engineering, imaging, and behavioral tracking techniques to learn how active neurons can be identified within large neuronal networks and lead to complex behaviors. They will gain knowledge about “state of the art” techniques and concepts and get hands-on experience in these techniques.
