Summary: This protocol is to prepare a mouse for head-restrained electrophysiological recordings or behavior by attaching a headbar (small titanium bar) to the skull. Standard antiseptic surgery procedures are used. Animals are anesthetized with isofluorane (2-4 %). Following deep anesthesia, a flap of skin approximately 1cm2 covering the skull is removed. Liquid marcaine is applied to the wound margins for topical anesthesia. A custom machined titanium bar (22 x 3 mm) is glued and cemented to the animal's head using cyanoacrylate and dental acrylic.
