Multiple electrodes are now a standard tool in neuroscience research that make it possible to study the simultaneous activity of several neurons in a given brain region or across different regions. The data from multi-electrode studies present important analysis challenges that must be resolved for optimal use of these neurophysiological measurements to answer questions about how the brain works.

This section provides an introduction to the analysis of data obtained from using small extracellular electrodes to record neural activity.
There’s a great deal of interesting stuff to be learned from analyzing simultaneously recorded spike trains. Probably the most popular analysis involves the construction of the crosscorrelograms and JPSTHs.
