Abstract
Purkinje neuron degeneration characterizes spinocerebellar ataxia type 1, yet the comprehension of the impact on the broader cerebellar circuit remains incomplete. We here detail simultaneous in vivo two-photon calcium imaging of diverse neuronal populations in the cerebellar cortex of Sca1 mice while they are navigating a virtual environment. We outline surgical procedures and protocols to chronically record from identical neurons, and we detail data post-processing and analysis to delineate disease-related alterations in neuronal activity and sensorimotor-driven response properties.
