Abstract excerpt
Ultrasound is capable of noninvasive transcranial focusing and activating the targeted neurons in brain regions, receiving increasing attention. Ion channel, acting as a nano-ionic switch, enables to modulate the ion flow across cellular membranes and it is of importance to control the firing frequency of a neuron. In this article, we demonstrate the behavioral response of Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) in...
