Decoding how information is represented and processed by this neural network requires the ability to monitor the dynamics of large numbers of neurons at high temporal and spatial resolution over a large part of the brain. Functional brain optical imaging has seen more than thirty years of intensive development. Current light-using methods provide good sensitivity to functional changes through intrinsic contrast and are rapidly exploiting the growing availability of exogenous fluorescence probes.

Vassiliy Tsytsarev holds a Ph.D. in Neuroscience from Saint Petersburg State University, Russia. Soon after graduation, he moved to Japan and began working at the Brain Science Institute of RIKEN, and the Human Brain Research Center, Kyoto. Functional brain mapping, neural circuits, and different types of brain optical imaging are his main scientific interests. In Japan, Vassiliy worked in the field of auditory neuroscience using intrinsic optical imaging (IOS) and voltage-sensitive dye imaging. After seven years in Japan, he moved to the USA, where he has worked at several universities, for the past six years, at the University of Maryland School. His current focus is on functional brain mapping, epileptic studies and neural network function in the rodent somatosensory system, which offers a perfect specimen for many types of neuroscience research, including models of neural diseases. Vassiliy is the author and co-author of more than 40 publications in peer-reviewed magazines and several book chapters. He is a Senior Editor for the Journal of Neuroscience and Neuroengineering, serves on the board of directors of the Society for Brain Mapping and Therapeutics (SBMT), and on the editorial boards of other scientific journals.
Dr. Vicky Yamamoto is a Cancer Scientist at USC Keck School of Medicine in the Department of Otolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery with more than 15 years of research experience ranging from developmental neurobiology and stem cell to molecular targeted therapy. Prior to joining USC, Dr. Yamamoto worked at Mount St. Mary's College, The Scripps Research Institute, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, and California Institute of Technology. She has significant teaching experience and mentored numerous students. She graduated from Mount St. Mary's College with a B.S. in biological sciences and a B.A. in chemistry. She received a Ph.D. in biochemistry and molecular biology from Keck School of Medicine of USC. Dr. Yamamoto's pioneering work on a Wnt co-receptor was conducted at the laboratory of David Baltimore, a Nobel laureate, 1975, at California Institute of Technology. She received a prestigious fellowship from California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) to investigate key mechanism that regulates the development of stem cells into neurons. Dr. Yamamoto has been a founding member of the Society for Brain Mapping and Therapeutics (SBMT) and currently serving as an Executive Director. She is also an active board member of the Brain Mapping Foundation.Ning Zhong is currently the Head of Knowledge Information Systems Laboratory and a Professor in the Department of Life Science and Informatics at Maebashi Institute of Technology, Japan. He is also Director and an Adjunct Professor in the International Web Intelligence Consortium (WIC) Institute, Beijing University of Technology, China.

General Terms and Conditions and Customer Information / Privacy Policy
I. General Terms and Conditions
§ 1 Basic provisions
(1) The following terms and conditions apply to all contracts that you conclude with us as a provider (AHA-BUCH GmbH) via the Internet platforms AbeBooks and/or ZVAB. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of any of your own terms and conditions used by you will be objected to
(2) A consumer within the meaning of the following regulations is any natural person who concludes...
**Right of withdrawal for consumers **
(A consumer is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that can predominantly be attributed neither to their commercial nor their independent professional activity.)

The revocation period is fourteen days from the day,
on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, has taken possession of the goods, provided that you have ordered one or more goods within the framework of a uniform order and these are or will be delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, has taken possession of the last goods, provided that you have ordered several goods within the framework of a single order and these are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party named by you, who is not the carrier, has taken possession of the last partial shipment or the last piece, provided that you have ordered goods that are delivered in several partial shipments or pieces;
In order to exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (AHA-BUCH GmbH, Garlebsen 48, 37574 Einbeck, telephone number: 05563 9996039, fax number: 05563 9995974, e-mail address: service@aha-buch.de) of your decision to revoke this contract by means of a clear declaration (e.B. a letter sent by post, fax or e-mail). You can use the attached model withdrawal form, but this is not mandatory.
To comply with the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification of the exercise of the right of revocation before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of revocation
If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse you all payments that we have received from you, including delivery costs (with the exception of the additional costs resulting from the fact that you have chosen a different type of delivery than the cheapest standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within fourteen days from the day on which we received the notification of your revocation of this contract.
For this repayment, we will use the same means of payment that you used for the original transaction, unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; in no case will you be charged any fees for this repayment.

You must return or hand over the goods to us immediately and in any case at the latest within fourteen days from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is met if you send the goods before the expiry of the period of fourteen days.
You bear the direct costs of returning the goods.
You only have to pay for any loss of value of the goods if this loss of value is due to handling of the goods that is not necessary to check the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Reasons for exclusion or extinction
The right of revocation does not apply to contracts
The right of revocation expires prematurely in the case of contracts
