===== Interactions with other pipelines =====
because spike_analysis incorporates the sorted_neurons table (f.e. unit_IDs and site_IDs) into behavior and ephys data, it is used as a first step in all ephys analysis.

The three main files come in a specific data structure, which contain the same fields except for the respective data:
  * by_block(body signals) - only trial information and body signals
  * sites (LFP) - additional site information and LFP, no body signals
  * population (spikes) - additional unit information and spike_arrival times, no LFP, no body signals
