Abstract
Magnetic neuromodulation has outstanding promise for the development of novel neural interfaces without direct physical intervention with the brain. Here we tested the utility of Magneto in the adult somatosensory cortex by performing whole-cell intracellular recordings in vitro and extracellular recordings in freely moving mice. Results show that magnetic stimulation does not alter subthreshold membrane excitability or contribute to the generation of action potentials in virally transduced neurons expressing Magneto.
