(A) Overview of a Mobile HomeCage platform used for head fixation of awake behaving mice (top image) and images of a mouse head-fixed in the platform under an objective during a typical two-photon imaging session (middle and bottom images). (B) Maximum intensity projection of 26 slices from z-stack of images showing typical architecture of layer V apical dendrites in somatosensory cortex in Thy1-YFP mice. Sequences of images showing examples of formation (C) of a new spine and elimination (D) of existing spine at 132 h time-point.
