Data description:
Calcium fluorescence signals of hundreds of simultaneously imaged neurons in mouse retrosplenial cortex during a locomotion task (running on a linear treadmill track with head-fixed), from different experimental groups of animals: control mice, mice with unilateral hippocampus lesion (uni), and mice with bilateral hippocampus lesions (bi).
Each element in the .mat cell array corresponds to data from one animal with the suffix indicating experimental group (n = 5 mice in each group).
Data structure explained below:
behavior.
ts: timestamp in second
pos_norm: normalized position (0~1, circular) for each trial
trial: trial number
speed: movement speed, in cm/s
speed_raw: raw running speed, extracted directly from encoder pulses
pos_cum: cumulative position (cm) for the entire session
pos_raw: raw position (cm) for each trial
imaging:
ratio: dF/F (%), nSamples x nCells
deconv: deconvolved calcium signal (%), nSamples x nCells
tt: timestamp in second
