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 talk goes over Neurobagel, an open-source platform developed for improved dataset sharing and searching. 

In this lesson, you will learn about the BRAIN Initiative Cell Atlas Network (BICAN) and how this project adopts a federated approach to data sharing. 

In this second part of the lecture Data Science and Reproducibility, you will learn how to apply the awareness of the intersection between neuroscience and data science (discussed in part one) to an understanding of the current reproducibility crisis in biomedical science and neuroscience. 

This lecture covers the benefits and difficulties involved when re-using open datasets, and how metadata is important to the process.

This lesson provides a quick tour of some data repositories and how to download and manipulate data from them.

In this lesson, attendees will learn about the data structure standards, specifically the Brain Imaging Data Structure (BIDS), an INCF-endorsed standard for organizing, annotating, and describing data collected during neuroimaging experiments. 

Overview of the content for Day 1 of this course.

Overview of Day 2 of this course.

Best practices: the tips and tricks on how to get your Miniscope to work and how to get your experiments off the ground.

This talk compares various sensors and resolutions for in vivo neural recordings.

This talk delves into challenges and opportunities of Miniscope design, seeking the optimal balance between scale and function.

Attendees of this talk will learn aobut computational imaging systems and associated pipelines, as well as open-source software solutions supporting miniscope use.

This talk covers the present state and future directions of calcium imaging data analysis, particularly in the context of one-photon vs two-photon approaches. 

In this talk, results from rodent experimentation using in vivo imaging are presented, demonstrating how the monitoring of neural ensembles may reveal patterns of learning during spatial tasks.

How to start processing the raw imaging data generated with a Miniscope, including developing a usable pipeline and demoing the Minion pipeline.

The direction of miniature microscopes, including both MetaCell and other groups.
