This lecture and tutorial focuses on measuring human functional brain networks. The lecture and tutorial were part of the 2019 Neurohackademy, a 2-week hands-on summer institute in neuroimaging and data science held at the University of Washington eScience Institute.
Lecture on functional brain parcellations and a set of tutorials on bootstrap agregation of stable clusters (BASC) for fMRI brain parcellation which were part of the 2019 Neurohackademy, a 2-week hands-on summer institute in neuroimaging and data science held at the University of Washington eScience Institute.
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.
This tutorial illustrates several ways to approach predictive modeling and machine learning with MATLAB.

Agah Karakuzu takes a spaghetti script written in MATLAB and turns it into understandable and reusable code living happily in a powerful GitHub repository.
Basic knowledge and comfort with Command Line Interfaces (CLI) is highly beneficial for learning how to use countless neuroscience tools and acquiring programming skills. Furthermore, CLIs are better disposed to reproducibility, automation, concatenation in pipelines, execution on multiple platforms, and remote access.
Ross Markello takes you through this 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.
Ross Markello provides an overview of Python applications to data analysis, demonstrating why it has become ubiquitous in data science and neuroscience.

This lecture focuses on how the immune system can target and attack the nervous system to produce autoimmune responses that may result in diseases such as multiple sclerosis, neuromyelitis and lupus cerebritis manifested by motor, sensory, and cognitive impairments. Despite the fact that the brain is an immune-privileged site, autoreactive lymphocytes producing proinflammatory cytokines can cause active brain inflammation, leading to myelin and axonal loss.
