Collaborations

In addition to the software projects lead by the Neuroinformatics Unit, we have many collaborations with research labs and other research software engineering teams.

Sainsbury Wellcome Centre & Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit

We have many internal collaborations to build or productionise software including:

• Data analysis tools for long term physiology and behavioural recordings (Project Aeon)

• Behavioural analysis pipelines (e.g. WAZP, crabs-exploration) with the Branco and Margrie labs (also a collaboration with the UCL Advanced Research Computing Centre)

• Assisting in the productionisation of Neural Playground, a software framework enabling comparison between hippocampus and entorhinal cortex models

• Data processing pipelines with the SWC Advanced Microscopy Facility, e.g. brainglobe-stitch

• Data preprocessing and analysis tools with the Margrie lab (e.g. rsp-vision, derotation and rc2_analysis)

• BrainGlobe atlas building and validation with the Akrami lab

• Extracellular electrophysiology analysis pipelines (SpikeWrap) with Stephen Lenzi

UCL

We have an ongoing collaboration with many members of the UCL Advanced Research Computing Centre to develop computational neuroanatomy (BrainGlobe) and behavioural analysis tools (e.g. WAZP, crabs-exploration)

External

• We have an ongoing collaboration with the Keshavarzi Laboratory at the University of Cambridge to build multiple tools, including movement and DataShuttle

• We contribute to multiple open source projects, including SpikeInterface
