Introduction
At present, optogenetics, electrophysiology, microscopy and other technologies have been widely used in experiments to study brain function. However, due to the limitations of technical requirements, in vivo studies are mainly conducted on anesthetized animals, which cannot simulate a real or natural environment. Therefore, how to study awake animals (i.e., freely moving animals) has become a current scientific research difficulty. The SCM100D series of awake mouse positioning devices developed by our company place awake mice in several behavioral experimental scenarios, fix the skull, accurately locate the brain area, and further conduct experiments such as optogenetics, electrophysiology or microscopy. It helps scientific researchers to detect the function of mouse neurons, understand the complexity and diversity of brain information transmission, understand the function of brain nuclei, and understand the pathogenesis of certain brain-related diseases (such as Alzheimer's disease and epilepsy), which provides guidance for the prevention and treatment of these related neurological diseases in human medicine.
