This lesson consists of lecture and tutorial components, focusing on resources and tools which facilitate multi-scale brain modeling and simulation.
In this talk, challenges of handling complex neuroscientific data are discussed, as well as tools and services for the annotation, organization, storage, and sharing of these data.
This lecture describes the neuroscience data respository G-Node Infrastructure (GIN), which provides platform independent data access and enables easy data publishing.
This lesson provides an introduction to the course Neuroscience Data Integration Through Use of Digital Brain Atlases, during which attendees will learn about concepts for integration of research data, approaches and resources for assigning anatomical location to brain data, and infrastructure for sharing experimental brain research data.
This talk covers the various concepts, motivations, and trends within the neuroscientific community related to the sharing and integration of brain research data.
This lesson focuses on the neuroanatomy of the human brain, delving into macrostructures like cortices, lobes, and hemispheres, and microstructures like neurons and cortical laminae.
This lesson provides an introduction to the European open research infrastructure EBRAINS and its digital brain atlas resources.
In this lesson, attendees will learn about the challenges in assigning experimental brain data to specific locations, as well as the advantages and shortcomings of current location assignment procedures.
This lesson covers the inherent difficulties associated with integrating neuroscientific data, as well as the current methods and approaches to do so.
Attendees of this talk will learn about QuickNII, a tool for user-guided affine registration of 2D experimental image data to 3D atlas reference spaces, which also facilitates data integration through standardized coordinate systems.
This lesson provides an overview of DeepSlice, a Python package which aligns histology to the Allen Brain Atlas and Waxholm Rat Atlas using deep learning.
This lesson is a general overview of overarching concepts in neuroinformatics research, with a particular focus on clinical approaches to defining, measuring, studying, diagnosing, and treating various brain disorders. Also described are the complex, multi-level nature of brain disorders and the data associated with them, from genes and individual cells up to cortical microcircuits and whole-brain network dynamics. Given the heterogeneity of brain disorders and their underlying mechanisms, this lesson lays out a case for multiscale neuroscience data integration.
This tutorial demonstrates how to perform cell-type deconvolution in order to estimate how proportions of cell-types in the brain change in response to various conditions. While these techniques may be useful in addressing a wide range of scientific questions, this tutorial will focus on the cellular changes associated with major depression (MDD).
This lesson explains the fundamental principles of neuronal communication, such as neuronal spiking, membrane potentials, and cellular excitability, and how these electrophysiological features of the brain may be modelled and simulated digitally.
This is an in-depth guide on EEG signals and their interaction within brain microcircuits. Participants are also shown techniques and software for simulating, analyzing, and visualizing these signals.
This lesson describes the principles underlying functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), tractography, and parcellation. These tools and concepts are explained in a broader context of neural connectivity and mental health.
This lecture covers the emergence of cognitive science after the Second World War as an interdisciplinary field for studying the mind, with influences from anthropology, cybernetics, and artificial intelligence.
In this lesson, you will learn about the connectome, the collective system of neural pathways in an organism, with a closer look at the neurons, synapses, and connections of particular species.
This lesson delves into the human nervous system and the immense cellular, connectomic, and functional sophistication therein.
This lesson characterizes different types of learning in a neuroscientific and cellular context, and various models employed by researchers to investigate the mechanisms involved.
