Recording Gamma Band Oscillations From Pedunculopontine Nucleus Neurons in a Brain Slice

Source: Urbano, F. J., et al. Recording Gamma Band Oscillations in Pedunculopontine Nucleus Neurons. J. Vis. Exp. (2016). The video demonstrates the method to record gamma-band oscillations in PPN neurons. Using a sagittal brain section with synaptic blockers in aCSF, it employs positive current pulses via a patch pipette to open calcium channels, inducing crucial subthreshold activity for wakefulness.
