What are the related technologies of neuroscience?

Neuroscience is a discipline that studies the structure and function of the nervous system, involving many different technologies and methods. Here are some commonly used neuroscience techniques:

1. Electrophysiology: Studying the function of nervous system by recording the electrical activity of neurons. This method can be used to study the cerebral cortex, hippocampus and thalamus.

2. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): Using magnetic fields and radio waves to generate detailed brain images to help researchers understand the structure and function of the brain.

3. Positron emission tomography (PET): By injecting radioactive tracers to measure the metabolic activities in different areas of the brain, we can understand the function of the brain.

4. Electroencephalogram (EEG): The electrical activity in the brain is measured by recording the potential changes on the scalp. This method can be used to study sleep, epilepsy and cognitive function.

5. Cell culture: Neurons or glial cells are isolated from animals or humans and cultured and studied in the laboratory. This method can be used to study the growth, differentiation and death of neurons.

6. optogenetics: Using photosensitive protein to control the activity of neurons, so as to control specific groups of neurons. This method can be used to study the structure and function of neural network.

7. Behavior experiment: To study the control of behavior by nervous system by testing the behavior of animals or people. This method can be used to study learning, memory and decision making.
