Python and Frontiers in Neuroinformatics

Friday, March 20, 2009

For Python enthusiasts this may be a good news, open access journal Frontiers in Neuroinformatics is hosting a special section on Python in neuroscience. Whole section highlights application of Python programming in neuroscience and neuroinformatics with focus on

  • simulators and simulator interfaces
  • data collection and analysis
  • sharing, re-use, storage and databasing of models and data
  • stimulus generation
  • parameter search and optimization
  • visualization
At first glance the whole collection looks really great, but I picked following few articles to list here
  • Modular toolkit for Data Processing (MDP): a Python data processing framework
  • Network features and pathway analyses in a signal transduction cascade
  • PyNN: a common interface for neuronal network simulators
  • Python for information theoretic analysis of neural data
  • OMPC: an open-source MATLAB®-to-Python compiler
  • PyMVPA: a unifying approach to the analysis of neuroscientific data
I am confused why the bioinformatics journals never tried something like this, any way you can grab your free PDFs from here.
