This lecture covers an introduction to connectomics, and image processing tools for the study of connectomics.
This lecture covers acquisition techniques, the physics of MRI, diffusion imaging, prediction using fMRI.
This lecture will provide an overview of neuroimaging techniques and their clinical applications.
Optical imaging offers a look inside the working brain. This lecture takes a look at orientation and ocular dominance columns in the visual cortex, and shows how they can be viewed with calcium imaging.
Functional imaging has led to the discovery of a plethora of visual cortical regions. This lecture introduces functional imaging techniques and their teachings about the visual cortex.
Investigating the structure of synapses with electron microscopy.
This primer on optogenetics primer discusses how to manipulate neuronal populations with light at millisecond resolution and offers possible applications such as curing the blind and "playing the piano" with cortical neurons.
Introduction to the Mathematics chapter of Datalabcc's "Foundations in Data Science" series.
Primer on elementary algebra
Primer on linear algebra
Primer on systems of linear equations
Primer on calculus
How calculus relates to optimization
Big O notation
Basics of probability.
Introduction to neurons, synaptic transmission, and ion channels.
2nd part of the lecture. Introduction to cell receptors and signalling cascades
Introduction to the types of glial cells, homeostasis (influence of cerebral blood flow and influence on neurons), insulation and protection of axons (myelin sheath; nodes of Ranvier), microglia and reactions of the CNS to injury.
Introduction to the origin and differentiation of myelinating cell types, molecular mechanisms defining onset and progression of myelination, demyelination and remyelination after injury.
This lecture covers: integrating information within a network, modulating and controlling networks, functions and dysfunctions of hippocampal networks, and the integrative network controlling sleep and arousal.
