# Functionality and user experience

Neurodata Without Borders files are structured hierarchically and encapsulate various "neurodata" types that reflect different aspects of neurophysiological experiments. These types range from *BehavioralEvents*, which record discrete actions or occurrences within experiments, to data structures like *Fluorescence*, *ImageSegmentation*, and *RoiResponseSeries*. Other neurodata types include *ElectricalSeries* for electrophysiological signals and *Units* for spike times of neurons. Neurosift allows interactive navigation of this hierarchical structure and provides plugin visualizations for many of these types. It also facilitates the creation of composite views by allowing users to select and synchronize multiple data types within the same interface. This synchronization extends to navigation actions such as zooming and panning, where different sub-windows, each displaying a different aspect of the data, maintain a shared time axis.
