I study fish telencephalon both by electrophysiology, by localization of receptor and ion channel expression and anatomical connectivity to better understand how this "small" neuronal network functions.
I would like to establish the neural connectome of the telencephalon, at first at a gross resolution, but on the long run at the fine scale. what are the key features I have to think about and include in my dataset?
What would be the best way of doing this? What would be the best software, freeware, what-ever-ware to use, both for collecting the features of the nodes and edges, and later for analysis?
Did you check http://www.openconnectomeproject.org/ the Open Connectome project? Besides data, it hosts an array of services you can use.
There are several packages for connectome visualization and analysis if that's of any help also: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4250035/ and http://www.cmtk.org/analyzer/
