Assay & Results
Aiming to target pyramidal cells in the basolateral amygdala. We also targeted medium spiny neurons in the anterior nucleus accumbens, at the interface between the core and shell. The aim was to record from pyramidal cells in deep layer prelimbic prefrontal cortex, which we found with extensive tdTomato expression after this procedure. Neurons within the injection site as well as pyramidal cells throughout the prefrontal cortex.

Other Information
Worked wonderfully.
Tips & Comments
No. Very straightforward.
