Accessories for Mini2P – Excitation Fiber v1

Founding developers Edvard Moser, May-Britt Moser, and Weijian Zong

Edvard Moser and May-Britt Moser lead the Kavli Institute for Systems Neuroscience in Trondheim, Norway. In 2014 they received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

Weijian Zong is a researcher at the Kavli Institute for Systems neuroscience where his main research interests are bio-imaging, neuroscience, neuronal computation.


The Mini2P is a 2-photon miniscope for large-scale calcium imaging in freely moving mice. It enables stable simultaneous recordings of over a thousand cells across multiple planes of densely active cortical regions during a wide range of behavioral tasks without affecting the animal's behavior.

EXPERIMENTAL CAPABILITIES

The Mini2P - Excitation Fiber v1 serves as the link between the 2-photon laser source and the scope. It can be connected to a coupling box via an additional FC/PC Adapter or directly to a fiber-coupled laser. The fiber can be connected to the scope with its collimator.

KEY FEATURES

  • Length: 2.3 +/- 0.1 meters
  • Covered in light excluding protective jacket
  • > 60% transmission

CONTENTS
