Version 1.3 BETA is now available!!!
- Spike detection protocol!
- Bug fixes
- Accompanying YouTube videos
- Increased Mac compatibility (We're not Mac folks here in the Barker Lab, so bear with us).
Fiber Photometry is a tool for neural imaging of calcium or neurotransmitter dynamics. Many commercial systems exist for recording data, but analysis software is lacking across the field. Here we've introduced an open-source analysis package that can be used widely to standardize analysis approaches.
Below are links to sample data files from either Tucker Davis Technologies (TDT) or a generic comma-separated value ('.CSV') format. These files provide examples of how files should be formatted for use in pMAT and can also be used when learning to process data in pMAT.
Single topic videos:
- Installing pMAT as an independent application
- Installing pMAT for MATLAB
- Loading TDT data into pMAT
- Loading Other data formats into pMAT as a CSV file
- pMAT Options Module tutorial
- pMAT Export Data Module tutorial
- pMAT Plot Trace Data Module tutorial
MORE VIDEOS COMING SOON!!! STAY TUNED!!!
Check back or get in touch with us regarding future updates
- Spike Detection
- Import function for Neurophotometrics Data
- Import function for FIP systems
- Compatibility with other open-source platforms (e.g., SimBA)
- Control channel-free detrending algorithms.
- Increased compatibility with TDT features (e.g., Behavioral notes).
