Introduction to Workshop on Open Collaboration in Computational Neuroscience
Introduction to Workshop on Open Collaboration in Computational Neuroscience
In this opening lesson, you will hear from the chair of the workshop (Neuroinformatics 2014 in Leiden, Netherlands), who gives an introduction and motivating argument underscoring the importance of collaboration in computational neuroscience.
Topics covered in this lesson
- Contrasts traditional modeling workflows with new, more collaborative approaches.
- Introduces the concept of RAPT (Reproducible, Accessible, Portable, and Transparent) models.
Prerequisites
Some previous exposure to traditional modeling approaches and workflows may be helpful in understanding what is new in this more collaborative approach. The video lectures Introduction to Modeling the Brain and Introduction to Workflows for Model Simulation may be helpful.
