Q for my fellow neuroscience peeps. Is there a way to stabilize the expression of cre if its under the control of a promoter that is active only transiently during development?

Is it possible to cross a cre line with a cre-dependent cre-expressing reporter mouse so that cre become permanently expressed in the population of interest, and amenable for e.g. virus injection in the adult?

Are there tried and true solutions?
