Scientist helps develop new tools to probe mysteries of the brain

A University of Otago researcher is part of an international collaboration that has developed an exciting and expansive new set of tools to probe cell types in the brain. The scientists' work, reported this week in the leading journal Neuron , partly involves using techniques that manipulate the genes of a small subset of cells so that the cells glow under fluorescent microscopes.
