Murine Shift Work
Behaviour acquisition framework for standardised, scalable experiments.
msw run --setup rig-a --subject mouse001 --task sequence
What it does
- Behavioural tasks: sequence learning, probabilistic switching, optotagging, calibration routines
- Hardware abstraction: interchangeable backends for behaviour controllers, cameras, stage, scale, stimulators
- Config system: layered YAML overrides (bundled defaults, rig overlay, task mode, subject, CLI)
- Session files: structured
.msw.session.yaml+ JSONL trial data; reader API for analysis - Live plot: per-task online performance display during acquisition
- TTL barcodes: unique per-trial barcodes on BNC output for alignment with parallel recordings
Installation
Requires Python ≥ 3.12 and uv.
