An integrated software for the cellular and circuit physiology of visual processing during behavior
The software is organized into several modules to perform the acquisition, the preprocessing, the standardization, the visualization, the analysis and the sharing of multimodal neurophysiological recordings.
The different modules are detailed in the documentation below and their integration is summarized on the drawing below:
Create a "physion" environment running python 3.11, with:
conda create -n "physion" python=3.11
Then simply:
pip install physion
- if you clone it from source, use the submodule argument
--recurse-submodules - For an installation on an acquisition setup, see the detailed steps in ./docs/install/acquisition.md
- For some installation issues, see ./docs/install/troubleshooting.md
Run:
python -m physion
You will find some pre-defined shortcuts in the utils/ folder for different operating systems.
N.B. The program is launched in either "analysis" (by default) or "acquisition" mode. This insures that you can launch several analysis instances while you record with one acquisition instance of the program. To launch the acquisition mode, run: python -m physion acquisition.
The different modules of the software are documented in the following links:
- Visual stimulation
- Multimodal Acquisition
- Intrinsic Imaging
- Electrophysiology
- Calcium imaging
- Pupil tracking
- Face Motion tracking
- Behavior
- Assembling pipeline
