Code & Data

Our lab codebase is almost entirely in Python. Below we break out our software into three domains: Scientific, Paper-specific, and Teaching & Educational.

While we host our code primarily on the lab's Github repo, several of our projects have expended to full-fledged packages hosted on their own independent project repos (listed below). This is done in the spirit of open source development and not having any one research group "own" a project.

We make heavy use of the kindness of those who are willing to share their datasets with the world. Lab PhD alumnus Tom Donoghue has curated a fantastic list of open neural electrophysiology datasets here.

For a friendly introduction to Git, check out our post here.

We strongly believe in open science, open data, and collaboration over competition. Voytek has published a few Reviews/Perspectives on these topics:

Scientific Software

We've written quite a few open-source Python pacakges for neural data analysis. We've created detailed, step-by-step tutorials for working with those three packages for a day-long invited workshop that we ran at the 2022 Society for Psychophysiological Research conference. You can work through those materials here.

Paper-specific Code

We also include code and data (where possible and permitted) for our manuscripts. The list of papers for which these are available are on our GitHub [here](github.com/voytekresearch/VoytekLab).

Teaching & Educational Software

Lab members also teach a number of data science, programming, and neural analytics classes. voytek_whiteboard
