In vivo electrophysiology experiments are widely used in neuroscience to investigate brain activity, yet setups can be expensive with multiple subjects. Eyal Kimchi and colleagues developed OpBox, an open-source in-vivo electrophysiology hardware and software package....
Software engineers Davide Ciliberti and Fabian Kloosterman meticulously report on their new open-source software, Falcon, in the paper “Falcon: a highly flexible open-source software for closed-loop neuroscience”, published in the Journal of Neural Engineering....
Collecting neural activity is one thing; cleaning, sorting, and analyzing neural data is a whole other beast. In the case of extracellular electrophysiology, there are numerous steps to preprocess data to obtain single unit, or spike activity. With the rapid adoption...
One of the keys to understanding neural correlates of behavior is to understand neural coordinates that we study with various probes. Traditional paper atlases have served as a key tool for researchers both mapping plans for experiments and assessing the histological...
The ability to integrate multiple physiological signals and behavioral measures is necessary for understanding the complexity of the brain and behavior. Methods to record and sync data streams in experiments can be complicated, time consuming, and commercial options...
