This lesson provides an overview of the current status in the field of neuroscientific ontologies, presenting examples of data organization and standards, particularly from neuroimaging and electrophysiology. 

This lesson continues from part one of the lecture Ontologies, Databases, and Standards, diving deeper into a description of ontologies and knowledg graphs. 

The International Brain Initiative (IBI) is a consortium of the world’s major large-scale brain initiatives and other organizations with a vested interest in catalyzing and advancing neuroscience research through international collaboration and knowledge sharing. This workshop introduces the IBI, the efforts of the Data Standards and Sharing Working Group,  and keynote lectures on the impact of data standards and sharing on large-scale brain projects, as well as a discussion on prospects and needs for neural data sharing.

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 lesson explores how researchers try to understand neural networks, particularly in the case of observing neural activity.
