Understanding how circuits in the brain simultaneously coordinate their activity to mediate complex ethnologically relevant behaviors requires recording neural activities from distributed populations of neurons in freely behaving animals. Current miniaturized imaging microscopes are typically limited to imaging a relatively small field of view, precluding the measurement of neural activities across multiple brain regions. Here we present a miniaturized micro-camera array microscope (mini-MCAM) that consists of four fluorescence imaging micro-cameras, each capable of capturing neural activity across a 4.5 mm x 2.55 mm field of view (FOV). Cumulatively, the mini-MCAM images over 30 mm2 area of sparsely expressed GCaMP6s neurons distributed throughout the dorsal cortex, in regions including the primary and secondary motor, somatosensory, visual, retrosplenial, and association cortices across both hemispheres. We demonstrate cortex-wide cellular resolution in vivo Calcium (Ca2+) imaging using the mini-MCAM in both head-fixed and freely behaving mice.

"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.
