Quick overview

We have two UCLA miniscopes

We purchased them from Open Ephys and this is the general documentation for it all (including Bonsai) Open Ephys Miniscopes.

Link to the Miniscope-DAQ-QT-Software wiki maintained by the Aharoni Lab

Currently using Minian to analyze the calcium imaging videos

Minian Pipeline Tips

Minian has a great wiki and pipeline already created, and is nearly plug and play (if your computer has enough RAM)

Minian Readthedocs

Where to find information/help

There's a few online resources that you can scour to see if people had a similar problem (and then hopefully a solution).

Supplies:

  • Minoscopeparts
  • [3D print design GRIN lens holder for expoxying the GRIN len to baseplate]
