Some interesting 2-photon microscopy papers
In the last few months, I built a special kind of 2P-microsope. In the meantime, I encountered some papers on microscope techniques which I found interesting and worth a side-note. Using AODs instead of galvoscanners for point-scanning: High-speed in vivo … Continue reading

Beyond correlation analysis: incremental mutual information
Incremental Mutual Information: A New Method for Characterizing the Strength and Dynamics of Connections in Neuronal Circuits is a 2010 paper by A. Singh and N. Lesica in PLoS Computational Biology that describes a method which can be used as an … Continue reading
Beyond correlation analysis: mutual information
Last time, I mentioned a website which gives an overview of methods to analyze neuronal (and other) networks. Let’s have a closer look. Here’s a list of the methods: Cross-correlation (the standard method) Mutual Information Incremental Mutual Information Granger Causality … Continue reading
