procedure
To silence cortical activity in mice, researchers will inject a virus carrying the Cre-dependent red-shifted opsin ChrimsonR (or a similar red-shifted excitatory opsin) into the anterior cingulate area (ACA) and orbitofrontal cortex (ORB) regions of a pan-inhibitory reporter line (Slc32a1-Cre, also known as Vgat-ires-Cre).
