This brief video provides a welcome and short introduction to the outline of the INCF Short Course in Neuroinformatics, held Seattle, Washington in October 2023, in coordination with the West Big Data Hub and the University of Washington. 

Difficulty level: Beginner
Duration: 4:58
Speaker: : Ariel Rokem

This opening lecture from INCF's Short Course in Neuroinformatics provides an overview of the field of neuroinformatics itself, as well as laying out an argument for the necessity for developing more sophisticated approaches towards FAIR data management principles in neuroscience. 

Difficulty level: Beginner
Duration: 1:19:14
Speaker: : Maryann Martone

This lesson provides a thorough description of neuroimaging development over time, both conceptually and technologically. You will learn about the fundamentals of imaging techniques such as MRI and PET, as well as how the resultant data may be used to generate novel data visualization schemas. 

Difficulty level: Beginner
Duration: 1:43:57
Speaker: : Jack Van Horn

This lesson contains the first part of the lecture Data Science and Reproducibility. You will learn about the development of data science and what the term currently encompasses, as well as how neuroscience and data science intersect. 

Difficulty level: Beginner
Duration: 32:18
Speaker: : Ariel Rokem

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. 

Difficulty level: Beginner
Duration: 31:31
Speaker: : Ashley Juavinett

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

Difficulty level: Beginner
Duration: 59:21
Speaker: : Alla Borisyuk

This lecture covers a wide range of aspects regarding neuroinformatics and data governance, describing both their historical developments and current trajectories. Particular tools, platforms, and standards to make your research more FAIR are also discussed.

Difficulty level: Beginner
Duration: 54:58
Speaker: : Franco Pestilli

This lesson gives an in-depth description of scientific workflows, from study inception and planning to dissemination of results. 

Difficulty level: Beginner
Duration: 44:41

Computer arithmetic is necessarily performed using approximations to the real numbers they are intended to represent, and consequently it is possible for the discrepancies between the actual solution and the approximate solutions to diverge, i.e. to become increasingly different. This lecture focuses on how this happens and techniques for reducing the effects of these phenomena and discuss systems which are chaotic.

Difficulty level: Beginner
Duration: 36:56
Speaker: : David Lester

This lecture will addresses what it means for a problem to have a computable solution, methods for combining computability results to analyse more complicated problems, and finally look in detail at one particular problem which has no computable solution: the halting problem.

Difficulty level: Beginner
Duration: 28:28
Speaker: : David Lester

This lecture focuses on computational complexity, a concept which lies at the heart of computer science thinking. In short, it is a way to quickly gauge an approximation to the computational resource required to perform a task.
