QuasAr
Also known as: QuasAr2
Taxonomy: Mechanism Branch / Component. Workflows sit above the mechanism and technique branches rather than replacing them.
Summary
The review explicitly centers optogenetic/all-optical electrophysiology for phenotypic screening, especially the Optopatch platform pairing CheRiff with QuasAr voltage indicators.
