Primes¶
- Intervention
- In neuroscience, optogenetic activation, lesion studies, and transcranial magnetic stimulation are interventions whose inferential value over correlational imaging rests on the severing of natural dependencies.
This sourceEstablishes optogenetic intervention as a causal manipulation of neural activity, contrasted with correlational imaging.
Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract
Establishes optogenetic activation as a light-driven causal manipulation of neuronal spiking and synaptic transmission, but says nothing about lesion studies, TMS, or why intervention outranks correlational imaging.
“This technology allows the use of light to alter neural processing at the level of single spikes and synaptic events, yielding a widely applicable tool for neuroscientists and biomedical engineers.”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
