This lesson gives an introduction to high-performance computing with the Compute Canada network, first providing an overview of use cases for HPC and then a hands-on tutorial. Though some examples might seem specific to the Calcul Québec, all computing clusters in the Compute Canada network share the same software modules and environments.
This talk presents an overview of CBRAIN, a web-based platform that allows neuroscientists to perform computationally intensive data analyses by connecting them to high-performance computing facilities across Canada and around the world.
The Allen Mouse Brain Atlas is a genome-wide, high-resolution atlas of gene expression throughout the adult mouse brain. This tutorial describes the basic search and navigation features of the Allen Mouse Brain Atlas.
The Allen Developing Mouse Brain Atlas is a detailed atlas of gene expression across mouse brain development. This tutorial describes the basic search and navigation features of the Allen Developing Mouse Brain Atlas.
This tutorial demonstrates how to use the differential search feature of the Allen Mouse Brain Atlas to find gene markers for different regions of the brain, as well as to visualize this gene expression in three-dimensional space. Differential search is also available for the Allen Developing Mouse Brain Atlas and the Allen Human Brain Atlas.
This lecture covers FAIR atlases, including their background and construction, as well as how they can be created in line with the FAIR principles.
Overview of Day 2 of this course.
This talk compares various sensors and resolutions for in vivo neural recordings.
This hands-on tutorial explains how to run your own Minion session in the MetaCell cloud using jupityr notebooks.
In this hands-on analysis tutorial, users will mimic a kernel crash and learn the steps to restore inputs in such a case.
This lesson introduces various methods in MATLAB useful for dealing with data generated by calcium imaging.
This lesson will go through how to extract cells from video that has been cleaned of background noise and motion.
This tutorial demonstrates how to use MATLAB to generate and visualize animations of calcium fluctuations over time.
This final hands-on analysis tutorial walks users through the last visualization steps in the cellular data.
This tutorial instructs users how to use MATLAB to programmatically convert data from cells to a matrix.
In this tutorial, users will learn how to identify and remove background noise, or "blur", an important step in isolating cell bodies from image data.
This lesson teaches users how MATLAB can be used to apply image processing techniques to identify cell bodies based on contiguity.
This tutorial demonstrates how to extract the time course of calcium activity from each clusters of neuron somata, and store the data in a MATLAB matrix.
This lesson demonstrates how to use MATLAB to implement a multivariate dimension reduction method, PCA, on time series data.
This lesson explores how researchers try to understand neural networks, particularly in the case of observing neural activity.
