Directional DBS Recordings and Biophysical Models for Subthalamic Nucleus Beta Synchrony

140.2 MB of processed electrophysiological recordings from directional deep brain stimulation electrodes in human subjects and model recordings from patient-specific simulations. The dataset supports a study on localizing beta synchronous neurons in the subthalamic nucleus and includes custom MATLAB scripts for analysis and figure generation. It was authored by M. Sohail Noor and is shared under a CC BY 4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Analyze processed electrophysiological recordings to characterize beta band activity patterns in the subthalamic nucleus.
• Validate patient-specific biophysical model recordings against experimental directional DBS recordings.
• Utilize the included custom MATLAB scripts to replicate the analysis and figures from the associated manuscript.
• Investigate the relationship between synthetic model electrophysiological recordings and de-identified human subject data.

Strengths

• Includes both experimental human subject recordings and synthetic model recordings, providing a paired data source for validation.
• Dataset size of 140.2 MB contains processed data and full analysis code, facilitating reproducibility.
• Data is de-identified and shared under a permissive CC BY 4.0 license, enabling open research use.

Limitations

• Unknown row and column counts for the electrophysiology data make it difficult to assess the scale of tabular or time-series records.
• Reliance on custom MATLAB scripts for analysis may require specific software and expertise, limiting accessibility for users of other programming environments.
• The dataset's focus on a specific neuroscientific study (subthalamic nucleus beta synchrony) may limit its generalizability to other brain regions or conditions.
