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.
This lesson explores how researchers try to understand neural networks, particularly in the case of observing neural activity.
This introductory lesson welcomes users to the virtual learning series, explaining some of the background behind open-source miniscopes, as well as outlining the rest of the lessons in this course.
This lesson provides an overview of the Miniscope project, explaining the motivation behind the how and why of Miniscope development, why Miniscopes may be useful for researchers, and the differences between previous and current versions.
This lesson will go through the theory and practical techniques for implanting a GRIN lens for imaging in mice.
This lesson provides instruction on how to build a Miniscope and stream data, including an overview of the software involved.
This tutorial demonstrates how to work with neuronal data using MATLAB, including actional potentials and spike counts, orientation tuing curves in visual cortex, and spatial maps of firing rates.
This lesson instructs users on how to import electrophysiological neural data into MATLAB, as well as how to convert spikes to a data matrix.
In this lesson, users will learn how to appropriately sort and bin neural spikes, allowing for the generation of a common and powerful visualization tool in neuroscience, the histogram.
Followers of this lesson will learn how to compute, visualize and quantify the tuning curves of individual neurons.
This lesson demonstrates how to programmatically generate a spatial map of neuronal spike counts using MATLAB.
In this lesson, users are shown how to create a spatial map of neuronal orientation tuning.
This lecture provides an introduction to Plato’s concept of rationality and Aristotle’s concept of empiricism, and the enduring discussion between rationalism and empiricism to this day.
This lecture goes into further detail about the hard problem of developing a scientific discipline for subjective consciousness.
This video gives a brief introduction to the second session of talks from INCF's Neuroinformatics Assembly 2023.
This talk describes the challenges to sustained operability and success of consortia, why many of these groups flounder after just a few years, and what steps can be taken to mitigate such outcomes.
In this lesson, you will learn about approaches to make the field of neuroscience more open and fair, particularly regarding the integration of equality, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) as guiding principles for team collaboration.
This lesson discusses the topic of credit and contribution in open and FAIR neuroscience, looking through the respective lenses of systems, teams, and people.
