INCF Short Course: Introduction to Neuroinformatics

INCF

The emergence of data-intensive science creates a demand for neuroscience educators worldwide to deliver better neuroinformatics education and training in order to raise a generation of modern neuroscientists with FAIR capabilities, awareness of the value of standards and best practices, knowledge in dealing with big datasets, and the ability to integrate knowledge over multiple scales and methods.

 

Module 2: EEG

Mike X. Cohen

In this module, you will work with human EEG data recorded during a steady-state visual evoked potential study (SSVEP, aka flicker). You will learn about spectral analysis, alpha activity, and topographical mapping. The MATLAB code introduces functions, sorting, and correlation analysis.

Biophysical Models

INCF

This course consists of introductory lectures on different aspects of biophysical models. By following this course you will learn about various neuronal models, neuron anatomy and signaling, as well the numerous and complex cellular mechanisms underlying healthy brain function. 

 

Applied Ethics in Machine Learning and Mental Health

Krembil Centre for Neuroinformatics

This course tackles the issue of maintaining ethical research and healthcare practices in the age of increasingly powerful technological tools like machine learning and artificial intelligence. While there is great potential for innovation and improvement in the clinical space thanks to AI development, lecturers in this course advocate for a greater emphasis on human-centric care, calling for algorithm design which takes the full intersectionality of individuals into account.

 

Bayesian Models of Learning and Integration of Neuroimaging Data

Krembil Centre for Neuroinformatics

Bayesian inference (using prior knowledge to generate more accurate predictions about future events or outcomes) has become increasingly applied to the fields of neuroscience and neuroinformatics. In this course, participants are taught how Bayesian statistics may be used to build cognitive models of processes like learning or perception. This course also offers theoretical and practical instruction on dynamic causal modeling as applied to fMRI and EEG data.

 

High-Performance Computing (HPC)

The dimensionality and size of datasets in many fields of neuroscience research require massively parallel computing power.  Fortunately, the maturity and accessibility of virtualization technologies has made it feasible to run the same analysis environments on platforms ranging from single laptop computers up to high-performance computing networks.
