Manipulate the default connectome provided with TVB to see how structural lesions effect brain dynamics. In this hands-on session you will insert lesions into the connectome within the TVB graphical user interface (GUI). Afterwards, the modified connectome will be used for simulations and the resulting activity will be analysed using functional connectivity.
This lecture focuses on where and how Jupyter notebooks can be used most effectively for education.
JupyterHub is a simple, highly extensible, multi-user system for managing per-user Jupyter Notebook servers, designed for research groups or classes. This lecture covers deploying JupyterHub on a single server, as well as deploying with Docker using GitHub for authentication.
This lesson introduces the practical usage of The Virtual Brain (TVB) in its graphical user interface and via python scripts. In the graphical user interface, you are guided through its data repository, simulator, phase plane exploration tool, connectivity editor, stimulus generator, and the provided analyses. The implemented iPython notebooks of TVB are presented, and since they are public, can be used for further exploration of TVB.
This tutorial covers the fundamentals of collaborating with Git and GitHub.
This lesson introduces the EEGLAB toolbox, as well as motivations for its use.
In this lesson, you will learn about the biological activity which generates and is measured by the EEG signal.
This lesson goes over the characteristics of EEG signals when analyzed in source space (as opposed to sensor space).
This lesson describes the development of EEGLAB as well as to what extent it is used by the research community.
This lesson provides instruction as to how to build a processing pipeline in EEGLAB for a single participant.
Whereas the previous lesson of this course outlined how to build a processing pipeline for a single participant, this lesson discusses analysis pipelines for multiple participants simultaneously.
In addition to outlining the motivations behind preprocessing EEG data in general, this lesson covers the first step in preprocessing data with EEGLAB, importing raw data.
Continuing along the EEGLAB preprocessing pipeline, this tutorial walks users through how to import data events as well as EEG channel locations.
This tutorial instructs users how to visually inspect partially pre-processed neuroimaging data in EEGLAB, specifically how to use the data browser to investigate specific channels, epochs, or events for removable artifacts, biological (e.g., eye blinks, muscle movements, heartbeat) or otherwise (e.g., corrupt channel, line noise).
This tutorial provides instruction on how to use EEGLAB to further preprocess EEG datasets by identifying and discarding bad channels which, if left unaddressed, can corrupt and confound subsequent analysis steps.
Users following this tutorial will learn how to identify and discard bad EEG data segments using the MATLAB toolbox EEGLAB.
This lecture gives an overview of how to prepare and preprocess neuroimaging (EEG/MEG) data for use in TVB.
In this tutorial on simulating whole-brain activity using Python, participants can follow along using corresponding code and repositories, learning the basics of neural oscillatory dynamics, evoked responses and EEG signals, ultimately leading to the design of a network model of whole-brain anatomical connectivity.
This lecture and tutorial focuses on measuring human functional brain networks, as well as how to account for inherent variability within those networks.
Neuronify is an educational tool meant to create intuition for how neurons and neural networks behave. You can use it to combine neurons with different connections, just like the ones we have in our brain, and explore how changes on single cells lead to behavioral changes in important networks. Neuronify is based on an integrate-and-fire model of neurons. This is one of the simplest models of neurons that exist. It focuses on the spike timing of a neuron and ignores the details of the action potential dynamics. These neurons are modeled as simple RC circuits. When the membrane potential is above a certain threshold, a spike is generated and the voltage is reset to its resting potential. This spike then signals other neurons through its synapses.
Neuronify aims to provide a low entry point to simulation-based neuroscience.
