Scattering of Sculpted Light in Intact Brain Tissue, with implications for Optogenetics

Abstract Optogenetics uses light to control and observe the activity of neurons, often using a focused laser beam. As brain tissue is a scattering medium, beams are distorted and spread with propagation through neural tissue and the beam’s degradation has important implications in optogenetic experi...
