# A title to describe the published resource.
title: "Electrophysiological dataset from macaque visual cortical area MST in response to a novel motion stimulus"

description: |
  We provide spiking responses from 172 single neurons in extrastriate visual area MST recorded in 139 sessions from 4 hemispheres of 3 rhesus macaque monkeys.
  The data was collected across 3 experiments, designed to characterize the response properties of MST neurons to complex motion stimuli. 
  In Experiment 1 ("Spatial Mapping") a small random dot pattern was sequentially presented in different locations across the screen in order to map the neuron's spatial receptive field.
  In Experiment 2 ("Tuning") a random dot pattern moving at different speeds in different directions in linear motion and spiral motion space was presented in multiple locations across each neuron's spatial receptive field. 
  In Experiment 3 ("Reverse Correlation") a newly developed random dot motion stimulus was used, which consists of a grid of positions, each with a direction and speed seed that determine the motion of dots in the vicinity of each grid location.
