Here is a resource you might be interested in:
SPARC FAIR Codeathon
SPARC codeathons are focused on projects which use SPARC data and/or SPARC tools and resources in novel ways.
Here's a dataset you might be interested in
Identification of peripheral neural circuits that regulate heart rate using optogenetic and viral vector strategies
Data from the innervation of intact mice hearts and the mapping of parasympathetic and sympathetic neural circuits which control heart rate. This data set identifies the cholinergic and noradrenergic neurons which project to the sinoatrial node.
