Neuromatch Academy aims to introduce traditional and emerging tools of computational neuroscience to trainees.

This lecture series is presented by NeuroTechEU, an alliance between eight European universities with the goal to build a trans-European network of excellence in brain research and technologies. By following along with this series, participants will learn about the history of cognitive science and the development of the field in a sociocultural context, as well as its trajectory into the future with the advent of artificial intelligence and neural network development.

Sessions from the INCF Neuroinformatics Assembly 2022 day 2.

Standards and best practices make neuroscience a data-centric discipline and are key for integrating diverse data and for developing a robust, effective, and sustainable infrastructure to support open and reproducible neuroscience. This study track provides an introduction to standards and best practices that support the FAIR Principles.

Neuroscience has traditionally been a discipline where isolated labs have produced their own experimental data and created their own models to interpret their findings. However, it is becoming clear that no one lab can create cell and network models rich enough to address all the relevant biological questions, or to generate and analyse all the data required to inform, constrain, and test these models.

This course offers lectures on the origin and functional significance of certain electrophysiological signals in the brain, as well as a hands-on tutorial on how to simulate, statistically evaluate, and visualize such signals. Participants will learn the simulation of signals at different spatial scales, including single-cell (neuronal spiking) and global (EEG), and how these may serve as biomarkers in the evaluation of mental health data.

The Neurodata Without Borders: Neurophysiology project (NWB, https://www.nwb.org/) is an effort to standardize the description and storage of neurophysiology data and metadata. NWB enables data sharing and reuse and reduces the energy-barrier to applying data analytics both within and across labs. Several laboratories, including the Allen Institute for Brain Science, have wholeheartedly adopted NWB.

This workshop hosted by HBP, EBRAINS, and the European Academy of Neurology (EAN) aimed to identify and openly discuss all issues and challenges associated with data sharing in Europe: from ethics to data safety and privacy including those specific to data federation such as the development and validation of federated algorithms. 

The UCSC Genome Browser is an online and downloadable genome browser hosted by the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC). It is an interactive website offering access to genome sequence data from a variety of vertebrate and invertebrate species and major model organisms, integrated with a large collection of aligned annotations.

This module introduces computational neuroscience by simulating neurons according to the AdEx model. You will learn about generative modeling, dynamical systems, and F-I curves. The MATLAB code introduces live scripts and functions.

This course corresponds to the third session of talks given at INCF's Neuroinformatics Assembly 2023. In this session, the talks revolve around the idea of cross-platform data integration, discussing processes and solutions for rapidly developing an integrated workflow across independent systems for the US BRAIN Initiative Cell Census. 

This course outlines how versioning code, data, and analysis software is crucially important to rigorous and open neuroscience workflows that maximize reproducibility and minimize errors.Version control systems, code-capable notebooks, and virtualization containers such as Git, Jupyter, and Docker, respectively, have become essential tools in data science.
