This course consists of two introductory lectures on different aspects of statistical models, in which you will learn about the neural coding problem, aspects of neural activity carry information, multiple spike train models, latent variable models, and regularization.
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.
This course covers the concepts of recurrent and convolutional nets (theory and practice), natural signals properties and the convolution, and recurrent neural networks (vanilla and gated, LSTM).
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.
EEGLAB is an interactive MATLAB toolbox for processing continuous and event-related EEG, MEG, and other electrophysiological data. In this course, you will learn about features incorporated into EEGLAB, including independent component analysis (ICA), time/frequency analysis, artifact rejection, event-related statistics, and several useful modes of visualization of the averaged and single-trial data. EEGLAB runs under Linux, Unix, Windows, and Mac OS X.
Sessions from the INCF Neuroinformatics Assembly 2022 Day 3.
This course provides introductory and refresher lessons for a range of concepts and methods useful in the field of neuroscience and neuroinformatics.
Neurohackademy is a two-week hands-on summer institute in neuroimaging and data science held at the University of Washington eScience Institute. Participants learn about technologies used to analyze human neuroscience data, and to make analyses and results shareable and reproducible.
This working group is a collaboration between OCNS and INCF. The group focuses on evaluating and testing computational neuroscience tools; finding them, testing them, learning how they work, and informing developers of issues to ensure that these tools remain in good shape by having communities looking after them. Since many members of the WG are themselves tool developers, we will also learn from each other and will work towards improving interoperability between related tools.
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.
As technological improvements continue to facilitate innovations in the mental health space, researchers and clinicians are faced with novel opportunities and challenges regarding study design, diagnoses, treatments, and follow-up care. This course includes a lecture outlining these new developments, as well as a workshop which introduces users to Synapse, an open-source platform for collaborative data analysis.
This workshop is organized by the German National Research Data Infrastructure Initiative Neuroscience (NFDI-Neuro). The initiative is community driven and comprises around 50 contributing national partners and collaborators. NFDI-Neuro partners with EBRAINS AISB, the coordinating entity of the EU Human Brain Project and the EBRAINS infrastructure. We will introduce common methods that enable digital reproducible neuroscience.
This course contains sessions from the second day of INCF's Neuroinformatics Assembly 2022.
This workshop provides an opportunity to explore the advanced tools and techniques for data sharing, analysis, visualization, and simulation.
Ethical conduct of science, good governance of data, and accelerated translation to the clinic are key to high-calibre open neuroscience. Everyday practitioners of science must be sensitized to a range of ethical considerations in their research, some having especially to do with open data-sharing. The lessons included in this course introduce a number of these topics and end with concrete guidance for participant consent and de-identification of data.
This course consists of several introductory lectures on different aspects of biochemical models. The lectures cover topics such as stability analysis of neural models, oscillations and bursting, and weakly coupled oscillators. You will learn about modeling various scales and properties of neural mechanisms, from firing-rate models of single neurons to pattern generation in visual system hallucinations.
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.

This workshop provides basic knowledge on personalized brain network modeling using the open-source simulation platform The Virtual Brain (TVB). Participants will gain theoretical knowledge and apply this knowledge to construct brain models, process multimodal neuroimaging data for reconstructing individual brains, run simulations, and use supporting neuroinformatics tools such as collaboratories, pipelines, workflows, and data repositories.
The Neurodata Without Borders: Neurophysiology project (NWB:N, 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.
