Title
Spike manager: a new tool for spontaneous and evoked neuronal networks activity characterization.
Abstract
Recent developments in the neuroengineering field and the widespread use of micro-electrode arrays for electrophysiological investigations led to new approaches in the study of large neuronal networks dynamics, in both in vivo and in vitro conditions. In spite of these new possibilities there is still lack of commercially available software tools that can help in the management and analysis of large amount of data coming from several experimental sessions. A new software tool, built in Matlab(C) environment, was developed with the aim to offer a valuable help to the neuroscientific community for processing multi-channel electrophysiological signals. In this paper we present the developed software tool and some examples of real applications on spontaneous as well as evoked (i.e., electrically stimulated) electrophysiological neuronal network activity from cortical cultures.
