Human_MTL_units_visual_WM
Dataset of human medial temporal lobe neurons during a visual working memory task
Summary
We present an electrophysiological dataset recorded from thirteen subjects during a visual working memory task. Subjects were epilepsy patients undergoing intracranial monitoring for localization of epileptic seizures. Subjects performed a ...
Downloading the data
Using gin
Create an account on gin and download the gin client as described here. On your computer, log in using
gin login
Clone the repository using:
gin get USZ_NCH/Human_MTL_units_visual_WM
Large data files will not be downloaded automatically. To get them, use
gin get-content <filename>
Downloaded large files will be locked (read-only). You must unlock the files using
gin unlock <filename>
To remove the contents of a large file again, use

See here for detailed information on how to use gin.
Using git annex
Make sure git and git-annex are installed on your computer. Create an account on gin and upload your public SSH key to your gin profile. Then clone the repository using
git clone git@gin.g-node.org:/USZ_NCH/Human_MTL_units_visual_WM.git
Large data files will not be downloaded automatically. To get them, use
git annex get <filename>
Downloaded large files will be locked (read-only). You must unlock the files using
git annex unlock <filename>
To remove the contents of a large file again, use
