This tutorial covers the fundamentals of collaborating with Git and GitHub.

This lesson provides a comprehensive introduction to the command line and 50 popular Linux commands. This is a long introduction (nearly 5 hours), but well worth it if you are going to spend a good part of your career working from a terminal, which is likely if you are interested in flexibility, power, and reproducibility in neuroscience research.

This book was written with the goal of introducing researchers and students in a variety of research fields to the intersection of data science and neuroimaging. This book reflects our own experience of doing research at the intersection of data science and neuroimaging and it is based on our experience working with students and collaborators who come from a variety of backgrounds and have a variety of reasons for wanting to use data science approaches in their work. The tools and ideas that we chose to write about are all tools and ideas that we have used in some way in our own research. Many of them are tools that we use on a daily basis in our work. This was important to us for a few reasons: the first is that we want to teach people things that we ourselves find useful. Second, it allowed us to write the book with a focus on solving specific analysis tasks. For example, in many of the chapters you will see that we walk you through ideas while implementing them in code, and with data. We believe that this is a good way to learn about data analysis, because it provides a connecting thread from scientific questions through the data and its representation to implementing specific answers to these questions. Finally, we find these ideas compelling and fruitful. That’s why we were drawn to them in the first place. We hope that our enthusiasm about the ideas and tools described in this book will be infectious enough to convince the readers of their value.

This talk presents state-of-the-art methods for ensuring data privacy with a particular focus on medical data sharing across multiple organizations.

This lecture talks about the usage of knowledge graphs in hospitals and related challenges of semantic interoperability.

This lesson provides an overview of the database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP), which was developed to archive and distribute the data and results from studies that have investigated the interaction of genotype and phenotype in humans.

Video coming soon. 

In this lesson you will learn about current efforts towards integrating multimodal human brain data using the open source SCORE HED library schema. 

This talk covers the differences between applying HED annotation to fMRI datasets versus other neuroimaging practices, and also introduces an analysis pipeline using HED tags. 

This lecture discusses the FAIR principles as they apply to electrophysiology data and metadata, the building blocks for community tools and standards, platforms and grassroots initiatives, and the challenges therein.

This lecture contains an overview of electrophysiology data reuse within the EBRAINS ecosystem.

This video explains what metadata is, why it is important, and how you can organize your metadata to increase the FAIRness of your data on EBRAINS.

This lesson gives a description of the BrainHealth Databank, a repository of many types of health-related data, whose aim is to accelerate research, improve care, and to help better understand and diagnose mental illness, as well as develop new treatments and prevention strategies. 

This lesson corresponds to slides 46-78 of the PDF below. 

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

This lightning talk describes the heterogeneity of the MR field regarding types of scanners, data formats, protocols, and software/hardware versions, as well as the challenges and opportunities for unifying these datasets in a common interface, MRdataset.

This lesson describes the current state of brain-computer interface (BCI) standards, including the present obstacles hindering the forward movement of BCI standardization as well as future steps aimed at solving this problem. 

This lightning talk gives an outline of the DataLad ecosystem for large-scale collaborations, and how DataLad addresses challenges that may arise in such research cooperations.

In this lightning talk, you will learn about BrainGlobe, an initiative which exists to facilitate the development of interoperable Python-based tools for computational neuroanatomy.

This is the second of three lectures around current challenges and opportunities facing neuroinformatic infrastructure for handling sensitive data. 

This lesson provides an overview of how to conceptualize, design, implement, and maintain neuroscientific pipelines in via the cloud-based computational reproducibility platform Code Ocean.
