Open systems to connect brain function with behavior

[Olaf Dimigen @olafdimigen]

Are you looking for a precise monitor for vision science, eye-tracking, or EEG? In a new preprint, we tested an interesting new display option with excellent timing performance: "High-speed" organic light-emitting diode (OLED) monitors. A summary:🧵[1/n]

Neuropixels 2.0 probes are now on sale!

Multi-shank, miniaturized, higher density than 1.0.

To order: https://t.co/nHqg08TArd

🧠🐭🔭 Neuroscience is in a new era: we’ve never been able to collect as much neural & behavior data as we can now,🔋 by new eng & AI.

We aim to build a Brain & Behavior Observatory, building on community #WeNeedYou

Bonsai 2.7 is out now at https://t.co/HzZjhx18Xy
This release was a large team effort to design and test a large number of backend restructuring to make the language and editor even more flexible and prepare cross-platform roadmap. A summary of what's new below.

The final level of validation has begun. Audio not optional. Props to Florian Rau for innovating this unique test procedure.

[Sanworks LLC @SanworksLLC]

The sun never sets on Sanworks R&D! We were thrilled to host Florian Rau at our Rochester HQ this month. His Bpod Stepper Module automates precise movement in Neuroscience experiments, a great contribution from Poulet Lab at MDC Berlin. Details here: https://t.co/LB1HG8HKyD

Are you doing ephys with optogenetics and are having issues with light-induced artifacts? I learned this great trick from @SteinmetzNeuro, it either completely solves the artifact or greatly reduces it. (1/3)

[Open Ephys https://bsky.app/profile/openephys.bsky @OpenEphys]

Good documentation is an essential part of making open-source projects accessible & useful.

To make our documentation easier to find and use, we now have dedicated docs sites for each of our tools!
