Doric Neuroscience Studio V6

Doric Neuroscience Studio is an intuitive software suite with multiple modalities. It controls Doric hardware and records and analyzes optogenetics, fiber photometry, miniature fluorescence microscopy, electrophysiology, and behavior camera experimental data.

Doric Neuroscience Studio software, with its different modules, controls the following Doric devices:

• Light sources (LED, Laser Diode, ★LISER™)
• Fiber Photometry Console
• Bundle Imaging System
• Miniature Fluorescence Microscope
• Electrophysiology Recording Headstage
• Optogenetics TTL Pulse Generator
• Behavior Camera

In addition to controlling those devices, the software contains the following data analysis modules for processing acquired data:

• Microscopy Image Analysis module (motion correction, ΔF/F, ...)
• Signal Analysis module (fiber photometry ΔF/F, filters, arithmetics, spike finding, ...)
• Behavior Analysis module (open-field tracking, motion score, and speed)
• more details to come soon
   

IMPORTANT : Before upgrading from version 5 to version 6 of Doric Neuroscience Studio software, users of Doric Lenses products should read the following information:

• DNS v6 requires a firmware update of the hardware
  This is done by the user with Doric Maintenance Tool software included in the installation file. Use the 'Check for server updates' and 'Update from server', functions (see screen capture).  If the update from sersver does not work, please contact Doric technical support before trying a manual update.
• DNS v6 saves data into an HDF5 file with the ".doric" extension. 
  Files saved with DNS v6 can be analyzed with its data analyzer modules. HDF5 files can be read with Matlab, R, and Python. We created a GitHub repository with code examples to facilitate data analysis with external applications.
