abstract = {In the field of neuroscience, a considerable number of
commercial data acquisition and processing solutions rely on
proprietary formats for data storage. This often leads to
data being locked up in formats that are only accessible by
using the original software, which may lead to
interoperability problems. In fact, even the loss of data
access is possible if the software becomes unsupported,
changed, or otherwise unavailable. To ensure FAIR data
management, strategies should be established to enable
long-term, independent, and unified access to data in
proprietary formats. In this work, we demonstrate PyDapsys,
a solution to gain open access to data that was acquired
using the proprietary recording system DAPSYS. PyDapsys
enables us to open the recorded files directly in Python and
saves them as NIX files, commonly used for open research in
the electrophysiology domain. Thus, PyDapsys secures
efficient and open access to existing and prospective data.
The manuscript demonstrates the complete process of reverse
engineering a proprietary electrophysiological format on the
example of microneurography data collected for studies on
pain and itch signaling in peripheral neural fibers.},
