Patent Classification: ["607", "090000"]

Abstract:
Disclosed herein are systems and methods involving the use of magnetic resonance imaging and optogenetic neural stimulation. Aspects of the disclosure include modifying a target neural cell population in a first region of a brain to express light-responsive molecules. Using a light pulse, the light-responsive molecules in the target neural cell population are stimulated. Multiple regions of the brain are scanned via magnetic resonance imaging. The scans allow for observation of a neural reaction in response to the stimulation in at least one of the multiple regions of the brain.

Claim (Index 9):
A method comprising:\n assessing fMRI scan results of an fMRI performed on neural cells stimulated in response to light; and inferring a relationship between the BOLD response depicted in the fMRI scan results and the neural cell stimulation.
