Abstract

Here, we present a protocol for longitudinal two-photon calcium imaging and holographic optogenetic manipulation to investigate memory in mice. We describe chronic cranial window implantation, stereotaxic viral delivery, and head-fixed contextual fear conditioning synchronized with imaging acquisition and optical stimulation of identified neurons. We further detail procedures for image data processing pipelines for cross-session registration and longitudinal tracking of the same neuronal population. This protocol enables simultaneous neuronal activity recording, behavioral monitoring, and causal interrogation of neuronal ensembles.

For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Wang et al.1

The paper's code and data availability statement is in the Data section.

Tracing map

Proposed by the machine: these links were found in the paper and verified at the source, without human review. The map will receive a Zenodo DOI once one of the paper's authors has validated it with their ORCID.

What the map holds:

  • 2 repositories of the authors' code, each at its verified commit, with its license and how the link was found in the paper;
  • 224 scripts, each with its path and the digest of its content;
  • 2 matches between paragraphs of the paper and lines of the code (method lexical-v1);
  • neither the text of the paper nor the code itself.

Its JSON (tracing-map.json) is deposited on Zenodo with its DOI once the map is validated.

Data

No dataset and no data link were found in the paper.

Data and code availability

• All data necessary to understand and assess the conclusions of the manuscript are presented in the main text and the supplementary materials. Raw calcium data will be shared by the lead contact upon request. • All original code has been deposited at Zenodo (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.16830880) and is publicly available as of the date of publication. • Any additional information required to reanalyze the data reported in this paper is available from the lead contact upon request.
