Software
Neuropixels Trajectory Explorer adaptated for Sutter Manipulator, version of 15 December 2023
Access at: https://github.com/ActiveBrainAtlas2/neuropixels_trajectory_explorer
Description: Coded by D. P. Harel, added to the Neuropixels Trajectory Explorer (NTE) by Prof. A. Peters (Oxford), to include support for the MP285 Sutter micromanipulator with the MPC200 Controller and the ROE200 Interface. This feature enables real-time visualization of the Sutter manipulator movements. It provides an automated means for planning and performing electrode placement with the sutter manipulator.
Please contact Mr. Dan P. Harel for questions on the operation of this software. The underlying NTE software is available at https://github.com/petersaj/neuropixels_trajectory_explorer.
Neocortical arteriole dynamics, version of 15 October 2023
Access at: https://github.com/JDuckworth1/NeurovascularDynamics
Coded by J. Duckworth and T. Broggini. Matlab-based routines for extracting spatiotemporal neurovascular dynamics from wide-field and two photon microscopy images. Scripts quantify propagating signals using the dominant vasomotor frequency and corresponding phase throughout the pial vasculature. The software also processes two photon data sets to quantify penetrating arteriole traveling dilations, vasomotor variations in red blood cell flux, and the relationship between smooth muscle calcium and vessel diameter.
