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 lesson gives an in-depth introduction of ethics in the field of artificial intelligence, particularly in the context of its impact on humans and public interest. As the healthcare sector becomes increasingly affected by the implementation of ever stronger AI algorithms, this lecture covers key interests which must be protected going forward, including privacy, consent, human autonomy, inclusiveness, and equity.
This lesson describes a definitional framework for fairness and health equity in the age of the algorithm. While acknowledging the impressive capability of machine learning to positively affect health equity, this talk outlines potential (and actual) pitfalls which come with such powerful tools, ultimately making the case for collaborative, interdisciplinary, and transparent science as a way to operationalize fairness in health equity.
This lesson contains both a lecture and a tutorial component. The lecture (0:00-20:03 of YouTube video) discusses both the need for intersectional approaches in healthcare as well as the impact of neglecting intersectionality in patient populations. The lecture is followed by a practical tutorial in both Python and R on how to assess intersectional bias in datasets. Links to relevant code and data are found below.
This lecture discusses what defines an integrative approach regarding research and methods, including various study designs and models which are appropriate choices when attempting to bridge data domains; a necessity when whole-person modelling.
This lecture covers a lot of post-war developments in the science of the mind, focusing first on the cognitive revolution, and concluding with living machines.
Maximize Your Research With Cloud Workspaces is a talk aimed at researchers who are looking for innovative ways to set up and execute their life science data analyses in a collaborative, extensible, open-source cloud environment. This panel discussion is brought to you by MetaCell and scientists from leading universities who share their experiences of advanced analysis and collaborative learning through the Cloud.
This lesson provides an introduction the International Neuroinformatics Coordinating Facility (INCF), its mission towards FAIR neuroscience, and future directions.
This talk describes the NIH-funded SPARC Data Structure, and how this project navigates ontology development while keeping in mind the FAIR science principles.
This talk describes the relevance and power of using brain atlases as part of one's data integration pipeline.
This lesson consists of a brief discussion around this sessions previous talks.
This brief talk goes into work being done at The Alan Turing Institute to solve real-world challenges and democratize computer vision methods to support interdisciplinary and international researchers.
This lesson is the first part of a three-part series on the development of neuroinformatic infrastructure to ensure compliance with European data privacy standards and laws.
This is the second of three lectures around current challenges and opportunities facing neuroinformatic infrastructure for handling sensitive data.
This is the third and final lecture of this course on neuroinformatics infrastructure for handling sensitive data.
In this lecture, you will learn about virtual research environments (VREs) and their technical limitations, (i.e., a computing platform and the software stack behind it) and the security measures which should be considered during implementation.
This lesson consists of a panel discussion, wrapping up the INCF Neuroinformatics Assembly 2023 workshop Research Workflows for Collaborative Neuroscience.
In this hands-on session, you will learn how to explore and work with DataLad datasets, containers, and structures using Jupyter notebooks.
This brief talk outlines the obstacles and opportunities involved in striving for more open and reproducible publishing, highlighting the need for investment in the technical and governance sectors of FAIR data and software.
This brief video provides a welcome and short introduction to the outline of the INCF Short Course in Neuroinformatics, held Seattle, Washington in October 2023, in coordination with the West Big Data Hub and the University of Washington.
