Hello! My name is James Rounds, and I am a graduate student at Cornell University, working towards neuro-informed educational interventions that leverage immersive media and modern theories of social psychology to optimize teaching and inspire better academic outcomes. For the past decade, I have primarily worked with EEG methods, as well as fMRI and various forms of psychophysiology (eye-tracking, skin conductance, facial EMG, heart-rate, EKG), and prior to that in vivo rodent electrophysiology. I also provide support for simultaneous EEG-fMRI experiments at Cornell’s Magnetic Resonance Imaging Facility. I am inspired by the Open Science movement and grateful to participate!

Hello everyone!
My name is Michaela Rice, but all of my friends and colleagues call me Mickey! I am a first-year Cognitive Neuroscience PhD student at Colorado State University working in Deana Davalos’ lab. My previous research has been investigating the effects of video games on cognitive control using EEG, but I’m currently shifting into examining how affect and mood disorders interact with cognitive abilities, and how cognitive health can be supported using technology. I have experience with EEG/ERPs, MatLab, SPSS, and R, and I’m looking to gain experience in Python and other coding languages. I’m planning to apply for a GSoC project, and I’m super excited at the possibility of being involved in the Open Source movement!

Hello Everyone,
I am Abhishek Parmar, an undergrad student in Computer Science and Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology Mandi.
I am proficient in python and have great enthusiasm for Neural networks and their application in medical field.
Currently I am doing a project where we have to classify surface level EEG and EMG signals to know the direction in which the person wants to move. I want to solve this problem in the best possible manner and hence would be grateful to talk to anyone who has worked in this field.
Thanks for having me

Hello everyone, Karthik Sama here.
I’m about to complete my third year at the International Institute of Information Technology, Bangalore enrolled in a Integrated(Bachelor’s + Master’s) program. The working of the brain has fascinated me in the for things that might appear mundane like concluding an apple is red, from being shown what red colour is, and what an apple is… From a computational perspective I have learnt there are a lot of ways to explore the field of neuroscience. I hope to take inspiration from people from diverse backgrounds present here for connecting my dots. I would love to here from the community what sparked their interest into the field they currently are in.
Thanks in advance

Greetings everyone!
I’m Swatantra from India, studying Biotechnology(UG). I love everything that is science, but I’m a bit biased towards Mathematics, Neuroscience, Technology and Physics, and I believe these four together can solve the prime problems in Neuroscience.
In future, I want to work with Brain-Computer Interfaces, mind-controlled prosthetics and explore the mysteries of human consciousness. To deal with and solve such problems I think we need a lot of help from brain-simulations and mathematics, for that I’m currently on the verge of changing my career path into computational neuroscience.
I’m learning everything from scratch: programming, how computers work, how the brains work; I’m also strengthening my mathematical knowledge and skills, problem-solving skills, and learning many more interesting things.
I’m generally very much enthusiastic, futuristic, filled with positive energy, dedicated, and like to embark on challenging problems and enjoy solving them. I love connecting with new people from different fields and form meaningful connections. I believe in open-mindedness and in helping others - “If you help someone to take a step forward, you took humanity forward by one step”.
I’m looking forward to connecting with others and help humanity step forward together!
I’m open to:
- Having great constructive conversations.
- Working in any sort of group projects related to neuroscience.
- Exchanging knowledge and experiences.

Hello everyone, I’m Xiyang Sun. 
I am a research scientist in Riken, Japan. Before that, I accomplished my Ph.D. course at the University of Tokyo, majoring in Computational neuroscience and Soft robot. Here is my personal website: Xiyang Sun.
Currently, my research topic is modelling for the sensorimotor pathway, including 1) multisensory control and related modelling; 2) modelling for the oscillation neural network, mainly based on the hippocampus; 3) analyzing the mechanisms for movement modulation, based on the cerebellum and relevant regions.
I am always happy to discuss these relevant fields in Neuroscience.
Any discussion and potential cooperation would be highly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Xiyang

Hi all!
I am a ‘young’ French researcher, trying to forget everything I knew about fMRI data analysis until today.
I am now looking for the right path in neuroimaging!

Hi,
I’m Jean-Charles Roy, I work as a PhD candidate in neurosciences at the University of Rennes in France. I am studying fMRI data on depressed patients cohorts in elderly and in young adults. For my PhD, I am examining the relationships between resting-state fMRI, apathy and actigraphic data. I am looking forward to using the reproducible available toolkits such as fMRIprep and Nilearn to contribute to reproducible neuroscience in psychiatry.
Cheers,

Hello everyone, I’m Raymundo!
I’m a research software developer for Brainstorm. I’m member of the Dynamic Neuroimaging Lab (neuroSPEED) at the Montreal Neurological Institute-Hospital (McGill University).
My interest is in the development of signal processing methods and tools applied to the analysis of brain recordings, such as EEG, MEG and fNIRS, and other biomedical signals such as ECG, respiration, PPG and EMG. I’m quite new, but very enthusiastic towards the concept of open (neuro)science. Lastly, some beside-research interests are data visualization, maps, Linux, linguistics and 🦫🦫.
Best,
Raymundo

Hi everyone:)
I’m Mehrsa Heidari third-year medical student at Ahvaz Jondishapour University of Medical Sciences enthusiastic about neuroscience, neuroimaging, data science and data visualization.
I’m here because of NeuroHackademy course!
Currently I am interested in brain imaging and processing. I am interested in working with Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease data.
I have basic programming knowledge(Python) and also a good familiarity with data analysis libraries (pandas, seaborn, matplotlib, numpy).
But I am new to this programing field where I need to deal with complex data analysis and AI approaches, It would be very helpful for me if there is anyone who can help me kick start in this area of interest or join me t start neuroimaging projects so it will be very helpful for me to continue in this path as a neuro lover!
Cheers!
