“For me the FemtoFiber ultra 920 with its Clean-Pulse Technology has the perfect optical parameters for highest two-photon image quality. In addition, the passive and cold laser head is an essential feature since it reduces the noise in laboratory and with that the stress on the living animals.”

Key Research Question
What are the neural codes used in advanced, multisensory cortical brain regions, such as entorhinal cortex?

Tools & Methods
The Moser group implements and develops tools for large-scale brain recordings using standard tetrode recording as well as recently introduced high-site-count silicon probes (meaning they can sample from a particular brain area with high-resolution).

In addition, they use portable two-photon microscopes for high-resolution optical imaging of neuronal activity. This means they can record the brain signal of many neurons, while the mice are allowed to freely move through the environment.
