Visual stimuli are an effective way to study brain function and behavior in all animals. Specialized LED displays have become an increasingly popular tool in neuroscience experiments. However, commercial LEDs have primarily been designed and optimized for use in...
With increasing interest in miniscopes as a method for in vivo calcium imaging, there is need for tools that increase accessibility to the computationally complex process of analysing calcium signals from raw video data. There are several barriers keeping new users...
Fiber photometry has become a widely used technology for recording cellular activity and neurotransmitter signals through the use of fiber optics and fluorescent sensors. However, a challenge that remains with fiber photometry is learning how to analyze the large data...
Two-photon microscopy is a powerful technique for investigating the structures and functions of biological systems. However, combining two-photon microscopy with other light sources, such as those used for driving optogenetic actuators, or for visual stimulation in...
The identification of behavioral states based on physiological measures such as EEG, EMG, and LFP is a non-trivial task and much needed for advancing research on topics such as sleep. Jacob Ellen and Michael Dash from Middlebury College created an automated neural...
