MetaData and anatomical location about each session

For each session, we have meta-data about recording locations:

exclude_area.xls: ROI definition File

Contains manually defined Regions of Interest (ROIs) for each session.

  • One row = one ROI
  • Single session may contain multiple ROIs (e.g., session 11 has object area at tip + unknown areas)
