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 provides a brief overview of the Python programming language, with an emphasis on tools relevant to data scientists.
In this lesson, users can follow along as a spaghetti script written in MATLAB is turned into understandable and reusable code living happily in a powerful GitHub repository.
This lesson gives a quick walkthrough the Tidyverse, an "opinionated" collection of R packages designed for data science, including the use of readr, dplyr, tidyr, and ggplot2.
This lesson gives a general introduction to the essentials of navigating through a Bash terminal environment. The lesson is based on the Software Carpentries "Introduction to the Shell" and was given in the context of the BrainHack School 2020.
This lesson covers Python applications to data analysis, demonstrating why it has become ubiquitous in data science and neuroscience. The lesson was given in the context of the BrainHack School 2020.
This hands-on tutorial walks you through DataJoint platform, highlighting features and schema which can be used to build robost neuroscientific pipelines.
This lecture discusses how FAIR practices affect personalized data models, including workflows, challenges, and how to improve these practices.
This lecture covers how to make modeling workflows FAIR by working through a practical example, dissecting the steps within the workflow, and detailing the tools and resources used at each step.
Serving as good refresher, this lesson explains the maths and logic concepts that are important for programmers to understand, including sets, propositional logic, conditional statements, and more.

This lecture provides an introduction to Plato’s concept of rationality and Aristotle’s concept of empiricism, and the enduring discussion between rationalism and empiricism to this day.
This lecture goes into further detail about the hard problem of developing a scientific discipline for subjective consciousness.
This opening lecture from INCF's Short Course in Neuroinformatics provides an overview of the field of neuroinformatics itself, as well as laying out an argument for the necessity for developing more sophisticated approaches towards FAIR data management principles in neuroscience.
This lesson provides a thorough description of neuroimaging development over time, both conceptually and technologically. You will learn about the fundamentals of imaging techniques such as MRI and PET, as well as how the resultant data may be used to generate novel data visualization schemas.
This lesson contains the first part of the lecture Data Science and Reproducibility. You will learn about the development of data science and what the term currently encompasses, as well as how neuroscience and data science intersect.
This module explores sensation in the brain: what organs are involved, sensory pathways, processing centers, and theories of integration.
This module covers how the brain interacts with the world through motor movements. Motor movements underlie so much of our functioning, our speech, the opening and closing of our eyes, and the beating of our hearts.
This lesson provides an overview of the structure and function of the neuron, its components and mechanisms, action potentials, and the many glial cells that support it.
This module explains how neurons come together to create the networks that give rise to our thoughts. The totality of our neurons and their connection is called our connectome. Learn how this connectome changes as we learn, and computes information.
