In vivobrainstem imaging with miniature microscopy has been challenging due to surgical difficulty, high motion, and correlated activity between neurons. Here, we present a protocol for brainstem imaging in freely moving mice using the dorsal raphe nucleus as an example. We describe surgical procedures to inject a virus encoding GCaMP6m and securely implant a GRIN lens in the brainstem. We then detail motion correction and cell segmentation from the data to parse single-cell activity from correlated networks. |
