The growing field of optogenetics utilizes the expression of genetically encoded proteins with specific optical properties to control or monitor the nervous system. Of particular interest are molecules that can either depolarize or hyperpolarize neurons in response to light. Provide some brief historical background on the discovery and optimization of these tools and describe how optogenetics (specifically for activating or inhibiting neuronal activity) has revolutionized neuroscience research (Dr. Ruthazer)
