Hello (science) world!
Following months of hard caffeine-fueled work, the Sanworks website is finally live. Here, you will find several useful resources to power your behavioral and systems neuroscience research. Our assembly service provides an easy way to get Bpod and Pulse Pal working in your lab. Bpod is a system for precise rodent behavior measurement and environmental stimulus control, and Pulse Pal is a programmable pulse generator for precise stimulus timing in physiology, psychophysics and optogenetics.
These systems (and all products we will facilitate) are freely available as open source hardware. This reduces the financial barrier to starting research, and makes our products easy for you to customize. In our forums, we host a community discussion board for Bpod and Pulse Pal users from labs around the world. Our forums are a convenient convergence point for bioscience researchers to discuss the challenges they are addressing with our tools, so we can target future updates to address shared instrumentation needs.
It has been a long, exciting road to this point. So here's how we're celebraing: a ?php party (featuring even more caffeine) to ensure that Sanworks is seamlessly deployed across platforms.
