As a global brand of neurophotonics lab solutions and related software tools, Doric facilitates and bolsters the latest trends in freely moving animal behavioral research. It sets standards for light sources, fiber-optic rotary joints (1x1, 1x2, 2x2, electro-optical, assisted ...), fiber-optic brain implants, optogenetics, fluorescence miniscopes, and fluorescence-intensity fiber photometry systems. This year's novelties are the development of Fluorescence-lifetime Fiber Photometry Systems and Data Analysis Software. The fusion of miniature microscopy or fiber photometry with electrophysiology, optogenetics, fluid delivery, etc., is actively pursued.
