The paper describes a protocol to monitor mouse behavior and record calcium signals in hippocampal neurons during odor plume navigation, including surgery, imaging, data processing, and decoding of spatial paths.

The paper identifies decision-making time cells in dorsal CA1 pyramidal neurons during associative learning in mice, showing sequential activity encodes temporal memory for decision-making.

The paper shows that cerebellar molecular layer interneurons encode valence during associative learning in mice.

The paper identifies a subpopulation of fast-spiking Sst+ interneurons that mediate feedforward inhibition and gate plasticity in the basolateral amygdala.

This paper introduces a miniature two-photon microscope for 3D neuronal imaging in freely moving mice, demonstrating active axial scanning and multi-color fluorescence imaging.
