Dataset for article "Somatosensory input drives membrane potential dynamics in motor cortex during voluntary limb movement"
Abstract
Correspondence to be addressed to Luc Estebanez: luc.estebanez@cnrs.fr and James Poulet: james.poulet@mdc-berlin.de Whole cell recordings in mouse M1 during forelimb behaviors, with and without somatosensory feedback from the forelimb. The single 6.5 Go HDF5 file includes 44 recordings. Each recording is an HDF Group that contains several datasets: Data_ephys: the Vm samples (in mV, NaN when the recording failed or was interrupted), and the corresponding times in T_ephys. X_limb_tracking and Y_limb_tracking: the X and Y position of the IR reflector positioned on the right forelimb of the mouse. The corresponding time samples are in T_limb_tracking. The status (touched by the limb: 1, not touched: 0) of the capacitive sensors that form the rest ("rest_sensor") and target ("touch_sensor") surfaces, and corresponding times are in T_sensor. the opening of the valve that delivers a reward water droplet ("water_sensor"), and corresponding times are in T_sensor. In addition, each Group comes with 2 attributes: cortical_layer (either 23 or 5 for Layer 2/3 or Layer 5), and is_nerve_cut (0: feedback remains. 1: feedback removed).
