Implanted wireless device triggers mice to form instant bond

 

For the first time, Northwestern researchers have wirelessly programmed mice to socially interact with one another in real time. The advancement is thanks to a first-of-its-kind ultraminiature, wireless, battery-free device that uses light to activate neurons.
"It sounds like sci-fi, but it’s an incredibly useful technique. Optogenetics could someday soon be used to fix blindness or reverse paralysis," said Prof. Yevgenia Kozorovitskiy.
