I am currently conducting a study to obtain data on neural activity data from the brain and nerves of rodents. The goal of this study is to develop a technology that records neural activity in the cerebral cortex and deep parts of the brain of animals at a synapse level during certain behaviors in order to understand the direct associations between small changes in neural activity and behavior. There are many kinds of neurons whose components should be identified before measuring their activities. By answering these questions, I would like to expand knowledge about neurons, which is useful in neurological sciences research.
