Hot off the eLife press, Jeremy Magland and colleagues have shared SpikeForest, a tool for validating automated neural spike sorters. Spike sorting is a crucial step in neural data analysis. Manual spike sorting is time consuming and sensitive to human error, so much...
Katrin Franke, Andre Maia Chagas and colleagues have developed and shared a spatial visual stimulator with an arbitrary-spectrum of light for visual neuroscientists. Vision research, quite obviously, relies on control of visual stimuli in an experiment. There are a...
Jeffrey P. Gill and colleagues have developed and shared a new toolbox for synchronizing video and neural signals, cleverly named neurotic! Collecting neural data and behavioral data are fundamental to behavioral neuroscience, and the ability to synchronize these data...
Alireza Azafar and colleagues at the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition, and Behaviour at Rabound University have published an open source database of high speed videos of whisking behavior in freely moving rodents. As responsible citizens, it’s possible...
The Adaptive Motor Control Lab at Harvard recently posted their project, Camera Control, a python based camera software GUI, to Github. Camera Control is an open-source software package written by postdoctoral fellow Gary Kane that allows video to be recorded in sync...
