Prepare a hypothalamic reference cohort
What does the DMH Pvalb-positive cohort contribute to planning a later comparison?
Scientific context
DMH, 12 HY GABA, and measured Pvalb produce 189 matching cells in one public specimen in this release.
The spatial coverage view and export dialog preserve the filters used to construct the reference cohort.
A careful workflow
- Set Display limit to 100,000 through the Explorer UI.
- Apply the recorded source filters and review displayed versus matching counts.
- Inspect provenance before export or downstream interpretation.

What the current app shows
These are browser captures of the public Allen MERFISH release in NeuroViz. Open this captured cohort in Explorer.

Scope
These captures describe the public release and support cohort definition and record review; quantitative validation remains a downstream analysis step.
Useful deliverable
A reusable DMH cohort definition and export-ready selection.
Current capability and extensions
Explorer provides one public specimen's cells, source context, and export controls; it does not supply comparison groups or replicates.
Meaningful pilot success criteria
A later study can add its own groups, replicates, and analysis plan.
