Abstract
The capability to selectively affect vital functions in cell networks and sub-cell compartments in vitro or in vivo is a mission critical tool in neuroscience and medicine. Optical excitation is one of the main strategies used to achieve high spatial and temporal resolution. In the following we describe recent results and future approaches of cell photostimulation mediated by organic semiconducting polymers.
