Subset Tab:

This page displays a table with each animal’s name and corresponding id.
Click on the animal name; a table with all session data pertaining to that animal will be displayed.

User Examples:

Example 1: Search by recording location

  2. On the right-hand side, under options select Probes
  3. In the search bar at the top of the page type desired recording location i.e. R ALM


Example 2: Search by probe id and obtain a list of all the animals on which the probe was used
  1. From the navigation bar: select search tab
  2. On the right-hand side, under options select Probes
  3. In the search bar at the top of the page type desired recording location i.e. R ALM


Example 3: Find all session data pertaining to animal of interest
  1. From the navigation bar: select subset
  2. Click on animal name
  3. All experimental data for each session will be displayed


Example 4: Display the number neuron clusters excited per session for a specific animal
  1. From the navigation bar: select subset
  2. Click on animal name from list
  3. Bar graph displaying the number of neurons excited per session will be displayed

Tables Tab:

This tab is separated and organized into four sections: Animal, Session, Tested, and Probes.
Corresponding buttons are presented on the right side of the page.

Animal

Displays a table with animal id, and name.

Session

Displays session id, animal id, session date, number of trials, and left/right performance score.
  1. The number of trials corresponds to the total number of tests that were run on a specific animal during a specific session
  2. Left and right performance is the percent of left trials that the mouse correctly licked left and the percent of right trials that the mouse correctly licked right.
  3. Typically, 100 trials of each type were run for each animal and session.

Tested

Displays a table with session id, probe id, number of clusters, and count of good and excellent values.
  1. Session id is unique to each experimental testing session conducted
  2. Probe id is unique to the probe depth and location used in the experiment
  3. Number of clusters refers to the number of neuron clusters that were excited per probe during the experiment

Probes

Displays data with probe id, depth, location, type and spike sorter
  1. Depth corresponds to how far into the brain the probe went.
  2. Type refers to the type of Probe used
  3. JRC spikesorter refers to the specific spike sorting technique used
  4. Spike sorting is a class of techniques used in the analysis of electrophysiological data to distinguish between the activity or one or more neurons
