“My laboratory develops, disseminates, and uses multi-color, genetically encoded indicators that sense released neurotransmitters, neuromodulators, and neuropeptides. We aim to understand the complex interactions of released neurochemicals on neural activity. Using a novel high-throughput sensor engineering platform, including ligand-binding scaffolds, computational modeling, and machine learning-guided directed evolution, we create highly optimized sensors covering the full-color spectrum with enhanced chemical specificity, resolution, and depth across biological systems.”

“HSV possesses multiple features that make it an ideal vector for delivery of genes into the nervous system. In particular, it accepts large molecules of exogenous DNA; it infects non- dividing cells from a wide range of hosts with high efficiency; it enables strong expression of foreign genes; it is episomal, and thereby does not cause integration effects; its infection of postmitotic cells is persistent; and HSV-1 particles can be concentrated to relatively high titers. Be- cause of these characteristics of HSV-1, and because it is neurotropic, it is currently one of the best viral vectors available for functional analysis of genes in the nervous system.” (Neve & Carlezon, Jr. 2002)
