The latest volume of the book series Progress in Brain Research is entitled "Optogenetics: Tools for Controlling and Monitoring Neuronal Activity", gathering 12 chapters of about 20 pages each. The volume is edited by Thomas Knöpfel and Edward S. Boyden and chooses to embed monitoring and controlling strategies into a unique, comprehensive concept of optogenetics, as explicited in the introductory chapter. http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/bookseries/00796123
The crystal structure of channelrhodopsin finally revealed in last issue of Nature. See the paper added by Kato et al. The should enable exciting future work on optimizing specific activation and conduction properties.
I would like to welcome new Members and Followers to the Optogenetics group!
Remember that beside acting as a repository of papers specific to optogenetics, the Optogenetics group also welcomes your questions, as well as news and reviews regarding recent developments in the wider optogenetics research community.
The principal aim of this group is really to bring out the important and relevant new research and technologies to our members.
As a Member you can contribute to both group discussions and upload papers (old and new). Followers on the other hand are only notified of group updates.
Members, please do contribute as we all learn more about cutting-edge developments in the field of optogenetics!
Do you have a question about using optogenetic tools in your lab? Post it!
Have you read a recent paper that helped you in your research? Share it!

New paper out in Neuron (and uploaded to the library) demonstrates optogenetic control of genetically defined cell types in rats.
New Nature Methods paper by Kleinlogel et al demonstrates gene-fusion of ChR2 and NpHR for balanced excitation and inhibition in individual cells.
