The Buzsaki Lab is proud to present a large selection of experimental data available for public access. We publicly share more than a thousand sessions (about 40TB of raw and spike- and LFP-processed data) via our public data repository. The datasets are from freely moving rodents and include sleep-task-sleep sessions (3 to 24 hrs continuous recording sessions) in various brain structures, including metadata. We are happy to assist you to use this data. Our goal [...]

CellExplorer is a graphical user interface (GUI), standardized pipeline, and data structure for exploring and classifying spike sorted single units acquired using extracellular electrodes. The large diversity of cell types of the brain provides the means by which circuits perform complex operations. Understanding such diversity is one of the key challenges of modern neuroscience. These cells have many unique electrophysiological and behavioral features from which parallel cell type classification can be inferred. CellExplorer is [...]

The brain is like a choir singing in an old church Svenska Dagbladet (The Swedish Daily News) published a kind review about The Brain from Inside Out. Below is the Google translation. Here is the original article in Swedish (behind paywall). And here is a PDF file of the full article in Swedish. From being perceived as a theater where the soul sits and interprets our senses, the brain has in recent years [...]

Society for Neuroscience Presents Ralph W. Gerard Prize in Neuroscience The Society for Neuroscience (SfN) will present its highest honor, the Ralph W. Gerard Prize in Neuroscience, to György Buzsáki, PhD. The award, which includes a $30,000 prize, honors outstanding scientists who have made significant contributions to neuroscience throughout their careers. The Gerard Prize is named for Ralph W. Gerard, a revered neuroscientist who was instrumental in establishing SfN and served as its honorary president [...]

Recognized for: Expanding our understanding of how neurons in the brain coordinate their activity to support our ability to form and recall memories. By uncovering the mechanisms of this coordinated activity in the brain, Fernández-Ruiz was able to alter how neurons are reactivated, demonstrating that memory can be improved artificially. http://blavatnikawards.org/honorees/profile/antonio-fernandez-ruiz/

Stephanie Rogers defended her heretical views and after her defense she got knighted in Madison Square Park. Congratulations Stephanie.
