As one of the main objectives of Grant-in-Aid for Transformative Research Areas (A), "Deciphering and Manipulating Brain Dynamics for Emergence of Behaviour Change in Multidimensional Biology", we pioneer and advance the field of "Behavioral Change Biology (BraiDyn-BC)" to elucidate the mechanisms by which organisms adapt to their surrounding environments by exploring and devising new behaviors. Here, our BraiDyn-BC Database is aimed at encouraging more researchers to participate in the study of behavioral change biology, by making publicly available the high-quality brain activity and behavioral data acquired by our core research groups.
All the datasets available here are under Creative Commons or similar licenses, and researchers are invited to freely experiment with them. The main contents of this database are the Complete Datasets, each of which includes multiple sessions of recordings having been conducted from multiple subjects with the same experimental design. Other, unpublished, datasets are made available in the form of Sample Datasets (multiple subjects, one session per subject), though the corresponding Complete Datasets would also be available upon request, possibly on the basis of a collaborative research.
Currently, the datasets do not have any common data formats or common processing pipelines. We plan to address these issues in the future, to improve the ease-of-use of our datasets.
