Distant Fos Raw Counts: Neuron Activity Following Brain Stimulation

Raw counts of Fos+ neurons in distant brain structures following targeted stimulation of OFC hotspot, insula hotspot, or a caudal OFC/rostral insula coldstrip. The dataset is a 233.0 KB XLSX file authored by Ileana Morales and last updated on April 12, 2026. It likely contains tabular data quantifying neuronal activity in response to specific experimental manipulations.

Use Cases

• Compare neuronal activation levels based on stimulation of different brain regions (OFC hotspot vs. insula hotspot).
• Analyze the effect of a 'coldstrip' manipulation on downstream Fos expression.
• Correlate stimulation site with activity patterns in distant brain structures mentioned in the description.

Strengths

• File size is precisely 233.0 KB, indicating a focused dataset.
• Data is shared under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license.
• Author and specific last update timestamp (2026-04-12 19:08:37) are provided.

Limitations

• Row count and column definitions are unknown, limiting suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• The 233.0 KB size suggests a very limited scope of data.
