Audio Stimuli:
- natural stimuli, i.e. animal vocalizations, environmental sounds, etc.
- 7.5 - 15 s long on average
- covered freqs from 0 to 22 kHz
- 3 to 63 presented sound clips, depending on neurons
Neural Responses
- Sprague Dawley rats
- 25 neurons, of which 3 are unresponsive, and 1 has too few data.
- membrane potentials obtained in patch-clamp (current-clamp mode, I=0)
- pharmacologically blocked action potentials
Requirements: A CRCNS account to download the dataset, MATLAB to preprocess it.
