SanPy: Software for the analysis and visualization of whole-cell current-clamp recordings.

ABSTRACT: The analysis of action potentials and other membrane voltage fluctuations provides a powerful approach for interrogating the function of excitable cells. However, a major bottleneck in the interpretation of this critical data is the lack of intuitive, agreed-upon software tools for its analysis. Here, we present SanPy, an open-source and freely available software package for the analysis and exploration of whole-cell current-clamp recordings written in Python. SanPy provides a robust computational engine with an application programming interface. Using this, we have developed a cross-platform desktop application with a graphical user interface that does not require programming. SanPy is designed to extract common parameters from action potentials, including threshold time and voltage, peak
