This article depicts the recording of individual cells from fluorescently tagged neuronal populations in the intact mouse retina. By using two-photon infrared excitation transgenetically labeled cells were targeted for patch-clamp recording to study their light responses, receptive field properties, and morphology.

Presented here is the procedure for using the c-grid (ear-electroencephalography, sold under the name cEEGrid) for recording brain activity in and beyond the lab for extended durations. This protocol describes how to set up these arrays and how to record brain activity using them.
