This is the third and final lecture of this course on neuroinformatics infrastructure for handling sensitive data. 

In this lecture, you will learn about virtual research environments (VREs) and their technical limitations, (i.e., a computing platform and the software stack behind it) and the security measures which should be considered during implementation. 

This lecture discusses the challenges of protecting hospital data.

This lecture discusses differential privacy and synthetic data in the context of medical data sharing in clinical neurosciences.

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

In this talk the speakers will give a brief introduction of the Fenix Infrastructure and Service Offering, before focusing on Data Safety. The speaker will take the participants through the ETHZ-CSCS offering for EBRAINS and all the HBP Communities highlighting the Infrastructure role in a service implementation in respect of Security. Particular attention will be on showing what tools ETHZ-CSCS provides to a Portal/Service provider such as EBRAINS, MIP/HIP, TVB, NRP amongst others. Finally there will be given a quick glimpse into the future and the role that “multi-tenancy” will play.

This talk gives an overview of the Human Brain Project, a 10-year endeavour putting in place a cutting-edge research infrastructure that will allow scientific and industrial researchers to advance our knowledge in the fields of neuroscience, computing, and brain-related medicine.

This lecture gives an introduction to the European Academy of Neurology, its recent achievements and ambitions.

This talk enumerates the challenges regarding data accessibility and reusability inherent in the current scientific publication system, and discusses novel approaches to these challenges, such as the EBRAINS Live Papers platform. 

This lesson aims to define computational neuroscience in general terms, while providing specific examples of highly successful computational neuroscience projects. 

This lesson covers membrane potential of neurons, and how parameters around this potential have direct consequences on cellular communication at both the individual and population level. 

In this lesson you will learn about neurons' ability to generate signals called action potentials, and biophysics of voltage-gated ion channels.

This lesson discusses voltage-gating kinetics of sodium and potassium channels.

In this lesson, you will learn about the ionic basis of the action potential, including the Hodgkin-Huxley model.

This lesson delves into the specifics of how action potentials propagate through individual neurons.

This lesson discusses long-range inhibitory connections in the brain, with examples from three different systems.

An introduction to data management, manipulation, visualization, and analysis for neuroscience. Students will learn scientific programming in Python, and use this to work with example data from areas such as cognitive-behavioral research, single-cell recording, EEG, and structural and functional MRI. Basic signal processing techniques including filtering are covered. The course includes a Jupyter Notebook and video tutorials.

This lesson gives an in-depth introduction of ethics in the field of artificial intelligence, particularly in the context of its impact on humans and public interest. As the healthcare sector becomes increasingly affected by the implementation of ever stronger AI algorithms, this lecture covers key interests which must be protected going forward, including privacy, consent, human autonomy, inclusiveness, and equity. 

This lesson describes a definitional framework for fairness and health equity in the age of the algorithm. While acknowledging the impressive capability of machine learning to positively affect health equity, this talk outlines potential (and actual) pitfalls which come with such powerful tools, ultimately making the case for collaborative, interdisciplinary, and transparent science as a way to operationalize fairness in health equity. 

This lesson is the first part of a three-part series on the development of neuroinformatic infrastructure to ensure compliance with European data privacy standards and laws.
