Automatic Recording of Single Neurons Guided by Computer Vision

Summary

Researchers at Purdue University have developed software that allows automatic patch-clamp recordings from individual neurons in a brain slice. They have also developed a pressure control prototype that together with a micromanipulator, allow the program to control the patch-clamp process. This technology uses computer vision to make this process completely automatic, requiring no human participation. Automatic image-guidance makes the whole-cell patch clamp technique faster, easier to perform, and accessible for less experienced users.
