This volume explores the latest developments in the study of the cerebral cortex. The chapters in this book cover a wide array or established methods such as in situ hybridization of brain slices; two-photon FRET/FLIM imaging of cerebral neurons; BioID analysis of actin-binding proteins; generation of iPS cells using Sendai Virus vectors; in vivo whole-cell recording from the mouse brain; and locomotor assays in Drosphila larvae and adult flies. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.Comprehensive and thorough, Cerebral Cortex Development: Methods and Protocols is a valuable resource that will help both expert and novice researchers further enhance their understanding of this important field.
