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 video gives a short introduction to the EBRAINS data sharing platform, why it was developed, and how it contributes to open data sharing.
This video introduces the key principles for data organization and explains how you could make your data FAIR for data sharing on EBRAINS.
This video introduces the importance of writing a Data Descriptor to accompany your dataset on EBRAINS. It gives concrete examples on what information to include and highlights how this makes your data more FAIR.
This video demonstrates how to find, access, and download data on EBRAINS.
KnowledgeSpace (KS) is a data discoverability portal and neuroscience encyclopedia that was developed to make it easier for the neuroscience community to find publicly available datasets that adhere to the FAIR Principles and to provide an integrated view of neuroscience concepts found in Wikipedia and NeuroLex linked with PubMed and 17 of the world's leading neuroscience repositories. In short, KS provides a single point of entry where reseaerchers can search for a neuroscience concept of interest and receive results that include: i. a description of the term found in Wikipedia/NeuroLex, ii. links to publicly available datasets related to the concept of interest, and iii. up-to-date references that support the concept of interests found in PubMed. APIs are available so that developers of other neuroscience research infrastructures can integrate KS components in their infrastructures. If your repository or your favorite repository is not indexed in KS, please contact us.
Overview of Day 2 of this course.
This talk compares various sensors and resolutions for in vivo neural recordings.
This hands-on tutorial explains how to run your own Minion session in the MetaCell cloud using jupityr notebooks.
In this hands-on analysis tutorial, users will mimic a kernel crash and learn the steps to restore inputs in such a case.
This lesson introduces various methods in MATLAB useful for dealing with data generated by calcium imaging.
This lesson will go through how to extract cells from video that has been cleaned of background noise and motion.
This tutorial demonstrates how to use MATLAB to generate and visualize animations of calcium fluctuations over time.
This final hands-on analysis tutorial walks users through the last visualization steps in the cellular data.
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.
