This lecture provides an introduction to optogenetics, a biological technique to control the activity of neurons or other cell types with light.

This primer on optogenetics primer discusses how to manipulate neuronal populations with light at millisecond resolution and offers possible applications such as curing the blind and "playing the piano" with cortical neurons.

This session will include presentations of infrastructure that embrace the FAIR principles developed by members of the INCF Community. This lecture provides an overview and demo of the Canadian Open Neuroscience Platform (CONP).
