Neuroscientists, You Now Have No Excuse Not To Share Raw Data

Researchers have developed a system allowing neurophysiologists to share raw data with each other, something they hope will generate new discoveries in the field.The first type of data they collected and standardized are recordings of so called ‘retinal waves’. During early development, retinal neurons generate signals that rapidly spread across from one cell to another, much like a Mexican wave in a football stadium. These patterns of activity are thought to help forge the neural connections from the eye to the brain. read more
