This tutorial walks participants through the application of dynamic causal modelling (DCM) to fMRI data using MATLAB. Participants are also shown various forms of DCM, how to generate and specify different models, and how to fit them to simulated neural and BOLD data.

This lesson corresponds to slides 158-187 of the PDF below. 

This lesson provides an introduction to biologically detailed computational modelling of neural dynamics, including neuron membrane potential simulation and F-I curves. 

In this lesson, users learn how to use MATLAB to build an adaptive exponential integrate and fire (AdEx) neuron model. 

In this lesson, users learn about the practical differences between MATLAB scripts and functions, as well as how to embed their neuronal simulation into a callable function.  

This lesson teaches users how to generate a frequency-current (F-I) curve, which describes the function that relates the net synaptic current (I) flowing into a neuron to its firing rate (F). 

This lecture introduces neuroscience concepts and methods such as fMRI, visual respones in BOLD data, and the eccentricity of visual receptive fields. 

This tutorial walks users through the creation and visualization of activation flat maps from fMRI datasets. 

This tutorial demonstrates to users the conventional preprocessing steps when working with BOLD signal datasets from fMRI. 

In this tutorial, users will learn how to create a trial-averaged BOLD response and store it in a matrix in MATLAB. 

This tutorial teaches users how to create animations of BOLD responses over time, to allow researchers and clinicians to visualize time-course activity patterns.

This tutorial demonstrates how to use MATLAB to create event-related BOLD time courses from fMRI datasets. 

In this tutorial, users learn how to compute and visualize a t-test on experimental condition differences.

This lesson introduces various methods in MATLAB useful for dealing with data generated by calcium imaging. 

This tutorial demonstrates how to use MATLAB to generate and visualize animations of calcium fluctuations over time. 

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 tutorial introduces pipelines and methods to compute brain connectomes from fMRI data. With corresponding code and repositories, participants can follow along and learn how to programmatically preprocess, curate, and analyze functional and structural brain data to produce connectivity matrices.
