This lesson teaches users how to generate a frequency-current (F-I) curve, which describes the function that relates the net synaptic current (I) flowing into a neuron to its firing rate (F).
This lecture introduces neuroscience concepts and methods such as fMRI, visual respones in BOLD data, and the eccentricity of visual receptive fields.
This tutorial walks users through the creation and visualization of activation flat maps from fMRI datasets.
This tutorial demonstrates to users the conventional preprocessing steps when working with BOLD signal datasets from fMRI.
In this tutorial, users will learn how to create a trial-averaged BOLD response and store it in a matrix in MATLAB.
This tutorial teaches users how to create animations of BOLD responses over time, to allow researchers and clinicians to visualize time-course activity patterns.
This tutorial demonstrates how to use MATLAB to create event-related BOLD time courses from fMRI datasets.
In this tutorial, users learn how to compute and visualize a t-test on experimental condition differences.
This lesson introduces various methods in MATLAB useful for dealing with data generated by calcium imaging.
This tutorial demonstrates how to use MATLAB to generate and visualize animations of calcium fluctuations over time.
This tutorial instructs users how to use MATLAB to programmatically convert data from cells to a matrix.
In this tutorial, users will learn how to identify and remove background noise, or "blur", an important step in isolating cell bodies from image data.
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 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 is a tutorial introducing participants to the basics of RNA-sequencing data and how to analyze its features using Seurat.
This lesson provides a brief overview of the Python programming language, with an emphasis on tools relevant to data scientists.
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.
