  • Protocol followed: extracellular electrophysiology
  • Notes & Issues:

| Probe | Target |

| Probe A | ACA |

| Probe B | Visa |

| Probe C | Visp |

| Probe D | Vislm |

| Probe E | Mop |

| Probe F | ACA Mos |

- first instance of using Openscope_P3_v52
-mouse had silicone plug removal the previous Friday (membrane regrowth expected)
- restarted all computers prior to putting the mouse on the rig
- Ryan performed the insertion, Casey was shadowing and assisting
- coated probes (5x dips) in CM-DiI
- agarose + silicone oil application went smoothly
- targeting went okay, lots of membrane on all probes
- all 6 probes inserted 
- settled probes for 30 minutes after reaching 3000 micron depth
- minor foam in corner of eye at 01:15, clears up a bit 
- pupil never obscured 
- Mouse walked a little (intermittent), no running. Stationary most of the experiment 
- First recording with new optic fiber mounts
    -frontal fiber positioned between probes E and F on tailcone (previously between F and A)
