Open Data from the Allen Institute for Neural Dynamics
At the Allen Institute for Neural Dynamics, we are collecting neurophysiology and behavior data to understand how the neural dynamics across brain-wide circuits drive decision-making and learning. In this tutorial, we will introduce the AIND data resources as well as our open data platform for collaborative research.
The Surgery team offers a variety of aseptic rodent surgical procedures ranging from stereotaxic injections to headpost implantation and cranial windowing.
The Neuropixels platform uses pioneering technology for highly reproducible, targeted, brain-wide, cell-type-specific electrophysiology to record neural activity from defined neuron types across the brain.
The Molecular Anatomy platform combines innovative histology, imaging, and analysis techniques to map the morphology and molecular identity of neuron types across the whole brain.
The Fiber Photometry platform enables optical measurement of neural activity in live animals to study neural circuits' function and dynamics in behaving animals.
The Behavior platform uses advanced technology to implement a standardized, modular, multi-task virtual reality gymnasium for mice, with the goal to study brain function across different behaviors at scale.
