This lesson continues with the second workshop on reproducible science, focusing on additional open source tools for researchers and data scientists, such as the R programming language for data science, as well as associated tools like RStudio and R Markdown. Additionally, users are introduced to Python and iPython notebooks, Google Colab, and are given hands-on tutorials on how to create a Binder environment, as well as various containers in Docker and Singularity.
This talk describes the relevance and power of using brain atlases as part of one's data integration pipeline.
In this lesson, you will learn how to understand data management plans and why data sharing is important.
This quick visual walkthrough presents the steps required in uploading data into a brainlife project using the graphical user interface (GUI).
This short walkthrough documents the steps needed to find a dataset in OpenNeuro, a free and open platform for sharing MRI, MEG, EEG, iEEG, ECoG, ASL, and PET data, and import it directly to a brainlife project.
This lesson describes and shows four different ways one may upload their data to brainlife.io.
This lecture covers why data sharing and other collaborative practices are important, how these practices are developed, and the challenges involved in their development and implementation.
This lecture discusses the FAIR principles as they apply to electrophysiology data and metadata, the building blocks for community tools and standards, platforms and grassroots initiatives, and the challenges therein.
This lecture contains an overview of electrophysiology data reuse within the EBRAINS ecosystem.
This lecture contains an overview of the Distributed Archives for Neurophysiology Data Integration (DANDI) archive, its ties to FAIR and open-source, integrations with other programs, and upcoming features.
This lesson provides a short overview of the main features of the Canadian Open Neuroscience Platform (CONP) Portal, a web interface that facilitates open science for the neuroscience community by simplifying global access to and sharing of datasets and tools. The Portal internalizes the typical cycle of a research project, beginning with data acquisition, followed by data processing with published tools, and ultimately the publication of results with a link to the original dataset.
The number of patients with dementia is estimated to increase given the aging population. This will lead to a number of challenges in the future in terms of diagnosis and care for patients with dementia. To meet these needs such as early diagnsosis and development of prognostic biomarkers, large datasets, such as the federated datasets on dementia. The EAN Dementia and cognitive disorders scientific panel can play an important role as coordinator and connecting panel members who wish to participate in e.g. consortia.
This lecture covers visualizing extracellular neurotransmitter dynamics
This lesson goes over the basic mechanisms of neural synapses, the space between neurons where signals may be transmitted.
This lesson describes spike timing-dependent plasticity (STDP), a biological process that adjusts the strength of connections between neurons in the brain, and how one can implement or mimic this process in a computational model. You will also find links for practical exercises at the bottom of this page.
This lesson discusses a gripping neuroscientific question: why have neurons developed the discrete action potential, or spike, as a principle method of communication?
This lecture consists of the second half of the introduction to signal transduction, here focusing on cell receptors and signalling cascades.
In this lesson, you will learn about GABAergic interneurons and local inhibition on the circuit level.
