Hi all,

I would like to know if you have any advice on how to perform electrode localization from silicon probes used in rats. I find in the literature that the most used methods in rats are the electrocoagulation technique and the histological staining of the electrode scar. I know that for mice there is a cool method based on fluorescent labelling of the probe and then an analysis software called SHARP-Track (Shamash et al, 2018 https://doi.org/10.1101/447995), which localizes each electrode site along the silicon probe trace. Thus, I wonder if there is also something else that is possible to do in rats, and more specifically if a software for this kind of analysis exists. Thank you for any tips!
