Genetically encoded fluorescent sensors continue to be developed and improved. If they could be expressed across multiple cortical areas in non-human primates, it would be possible to measure a variety of spatiotemporal dynamics of primate-specific cortical activity. Here, we develop an Automated Robotic Virus injection System (ARViS) for broad expression of a biosensor. ARViS consists of two technologies: image recognition of vasculature structures on the cortical surface to determine multiple injection sites without hitting them, and robotic control of micropipette insertion perpendicular to the cortical surface with 50-m precision. In mouse cortex, ARViS sequentially injected virus solution into 100 sites over a duration of 100-minutes with a bleeding probability of only 0.1% per site. Furthermore, ARViS successfully achieved 266-site injections over the frontoparietal cortex of a common marmoset. We demonstrate one-photon and two-photon calcium imaging in the marmoset frontoparietal cortex, illustrating the effective expression of biosensors delivered by ARViS.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
