Much like neuroinformatics, data science uses techniques from computational science to derive meaningful results from large complex datasets. In this session, we will explore the relationship between neuroinformatics and data science, by emphasizing a range of data science approaches and activities, ranging from the development and application of statistical methods, through the establishment of communities and platforms, and through the implementation of open-source software tools.

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 is currently under construction but will coming soon.  It will give an overview of the world of scientific publishing, spanning from traditional formats, to open to access, to open, interactive, reproducible, and 'living' publications with modifiable and executable code.

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

This module covers the concepts of model predictive control, emulation of the kinematics from observations, training a policy, and predictive policy learning under uncertainty. It is a part of the Deep Learning Course at NYU's Center for Data Science, a course that covered the latest techniques in deep learning and representation learning, focusing on supervised and unsupervised deep learning, embedding methods, metric learning, convolutional and recurrent nets, with appli

This course consists of a series of lessons which aim to introduce the basic conceptual and experimental approaches in computational neuroscience. 

This workshop delves into the need for, structure of, tools for, and use of hierarchical event descriptor (HED) annotation to prepare neuroimaging time series data for storing, sharing, and advanced analysis. HED are a controlled vocabulary of terms describing events in a machine-actionable form so that algorithms can use the information without manual recoding.

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.

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 includes both lectures and tutorials around the management and analysis of genomic data in clinical research and care. Participants are led through the basics of genome-wide association studies (GWAS), genotypes, and polygenic risk scores, as well as novel concepts and tools for more sophisticated consideration of population stratification in GWAS.

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.

This module covers fMRI data, including creating and interpreting flatmaps, exploring variability and average responses, and visual eccenticity. You will learn about processing BOLD signals, trial-averaging, and t-tests. The MATLAB code introduces data animations, multicolor visualizations, and linear indexing.

This course consists of a series of lessons and tutorials aimed at providing an introductory overview of data science implementation in MATLAB®, a widely used, numeric and computing platform which works with many types of data and file formats. In this course, you will learn the basic concepts behind data science in general, as well as how to apply those concepts within the MATLAB framework in particular.

Get up to speed about the fundamental principles of full brain network modeling using the open-source neuroinformatics platform The Virtual Brain (TVB). This simulation environment enables the biologically realistic modeling of whole-brain network dynamics across different brain scales, using personalized structural connectome-based approach.

There is a growing recognition and adoption of open and FAIR science practices in neuroscience research. This is predominately regarded as scientific progress and has enabled significant opportunities for large, collaborative, team science. The efforts and practical work that go into creating an open and FAIR landscape extend far beyond just the science.

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

This module is intended to provide a foundation in energy-based models. It is a part of the Deep Learning Course at NYU's Center for Data Science. Prerequisites for this module include: Introduction to Deep Learning (module 1 of the course), Parameter Sharing (module 2 of the course),

The landscape of scientific research is changing. Today’s researchers need to participate in large-scale collaborations, obtain and manage funding, share data, publish, and undertake knowledge translation activities in order to be successful. As per these increasing demands, Science Management is now a vital piece of the environment. This course consists of lectures presenting practical techniques, tools, and project management skills that participants can begin to implement.

Data science relies on several important aspects of mathematics. In this course, you'll learn what forms of mathematics are most useful for data science, and see some worked examples of how math can solve important data science problems.

This course corresponds to the second session of INCF's Neuroinformatics Assembly 2023. This series of talks continues a discussion of FAIR principles from the first session, with a greater emphasis on brain data (humans and animals) atlases for data analysis and integation.
