Neurophysiology acquisition and analysis for Python
ACQ4 is a platform for data acquisition, management, and analysis in neurophysiology experiments, especially focusing on patch clamp electrophysiology, optogenetics, and related techniques. It is used both as a platform for developing customized data acquisition tools and as an application that handles the most common requirements in whole-cell recording, calcium imaging, and photostimulation.
ACQ4 is developed with support from the Allen Institute for Brain Science, Sensapex Oy, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and many other users around the world.
