GRIN lens (7.3 × 0.6 mm, Inscopix) was implanted according to Inscopix instructions. A holder (Inscopix, Gripper Part ID: 1050–002199) was used to lower the miniature microscope with baseplate onto the top of the GRIN lens until the GCaMP6m fluorescence was visible under the illumination from the miniscope’s LED. Subsequently, the baseplate was fixed to the skull with dental cement darkened with carbon powder to prevent external light from contaminating the imaging field-of-view. A cover (Inscopix, Part ID: 1050–002193) was attached to the baseplate to protect the microendoscope.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
