Wireless Fiber Photometry Systems

The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) is seeking information from qualified companies to provide a wireless fiber photometry system. The system should be a turnkey solution, allowing for the measurement of neural activity via calcium and neurotransmitter-specific sensors. The system will be used for research in brain circuits and systems, specifically for investigations of neuronal circuit dynamics in freely moving animals with neurotransmitter specificity. The system should have a small size, wireless signal transmission, and be suitable for use with non-human primates. The contract will require the delivery of two TeleFiOpto-Sets (Standard Configuration) and two TeleFiOpto-Sets (dual position configuration) within 30 days after receipt of order. • The system should have a wireless signal transmission distance of 2m in standard configuration and up to 5m with an additional antenna. • The system should be able to record neuronal data in experimental settings where animals are jumping and moving in the vertical direction. • The system should have a small headstage suitable for mice, rats, marmosets, etc. • The contract will include a one-year warranty period.
