All NWB conversions

Misha Ahrens

Janelia Research Campus

Project started July 2022

Developed NWB conversion tools for the Ahrens lab's whole-brain calcium imaging data in zebrafish. The project includes conversion of complex behavioral and neural recording datasets, including studies of glia-neuron interactions and behavioral state transitions. The data pipeline handles multi-modal integration of calcium imaging, behavioral measurements, and experimental metadata.

Beth Buffalo

University of Washington

Developed NWB conversion tools for the Buffalo lab's multi-modal neurophysiology data, handling both raw and processed neural recordings from Neuralynx systems, sorted spikes, and behavioral measurements in non-human primates doing hippocampal tasks. The conversion pipeline includes a graphical interface for metadata editing and supports various data formats including NCS, MAT, and NEX files.

Bob Datta

Harvard University

Developed NWB conversion tools for the Datta lab's behavioral neuroscience datasets, featuring photometric recordings and optogenetic manipulations in mice. The conversion pipeline handles multi-modal data including fiber photometry signals, behavioral measurements, and closed-loop optogenetic stimulation data studying dopamine dynamics during spontaneous behavior.

Carlos Brody

Princeton University

Developed NWB conversion tools for the Brody lab's neurophysiology datasets focused on decision-making and neural circuits. The project includes custom processing pipelines and utility code for converting experimental data to the standardized NWB format, with specialized Python-based conversion tools.

David Tank

Princeton University

Developed comprehensive NWB conversion tools for the Tank lab's behavioral and electrophysiology datasets. Created a custom NWB extension (ndx-tank-metadata) for storing experiment-specific metadata including maze configurations and rig parameters. The conversion pipeline integrates Neuropixels recordings with VirMen behavioral data, including detailed trial structure, behavioral metrics, and synchronized TTL events. The tools support extensive metadata handling and include specialized visualization widgets for behavioral analysis.
