Summary
Abstract The information flow between the peripheral organs and the brain is increasingly recognized as bidirectional, with activity in peripheral circuits influencing high-level behaviors including mood, motivation, and stress. To establish mechanistic links between activity of peripheral neurons and brain circuits, we will develop a species- agnostic framework for targeting and remote modulation of specific cells within the peripheral organs and the brain during behavior. Our framework will combine the homing, modulation, and contrast properties of synthetic magnetic nanomaterials with the t
