A practical course at University College London 29 April - 1 May 2019
 probes are transforming neurophysiology. They have 1,000 sites closely spaced on a 1 cm shank, and allow recordings of up to 500 neurons per electrode.ÌýThis practical course aims to train students and postdocs from a wide array of laboratories to use these probes and to spike sort using KilosortÌý²¹²Ô»å .Ìý
The course was supported by the Ìý²¹²Ô»å generously funded and hosted by the .ÌýFurther courses are planned for 2020 and 2021. See the for alternative courses.ÌýÂ
