A pair of 2009 papers by Cardin et al. and Sohal et al. marked a watershed moment as optogenetics exploded onto the scene of systems neuroscience. This pair of back-to-back papers in the June issue of Nature leveraged a powerful combination of the Cre/lox system, adeno-associated viral gene vectors, and optogenetics to re-examine the circuit basis of neuronal synchronization.

Cardin 等人在 2009 年发表的一对论文。和 Sohal 等人。随着光遗传学进入系统神经科学领域，标志着一个分水岭。Nature 6 月刊上的这对背靠背论文利用 Cre/lox 系统、腺相关病毒基因载体和光遗传学的强大组合重新审视神经元同步的电路基础。
