A collective of researchers from several Canadian universities and institutions has developed a series of Neuroimaging lessons under The Carpentries Incubator, meant to teach students fundamental skills that contribute to reproducible brain science. For five consecutive Fridays starting on the 22nd of October 2021, the lessons listed below will be will be taught live online.
Schedule
| Date and Time | NeuroImaging Lesson | Teachers |
|---|---|---|
| Friday, October 22, 11:00-13:30 EDT | Introduction to working with MRI data and BIDS with Python | Hannes Almgren, Amin Banihashemi |
| Friday, October 29, 11:00-13:30 EDT | Structural neuro-imaging analysis in Python | Kesavi Kanagasabai, Amin Banihashemi |
| Friday, November 5, 11:00-13:30 EDT | dMRI analysis in Python | Davide Momi, Bradley Karat |
| Friday, November 12, 11:00-15:30 EDT | Resting-state analysis in Python | Kesavi Kanagasabai, Ladan Shahshahani, Sheyas Harita |
| Friday, November 19, 11:00-13:30 EDT | Working with EEG-BIDS in EEGLAB (Matlab) | Davide Momi, Yu-Fang Yang |
Some familiarity with Python is helpful for the first four lessons. Introductions to Python can be found in such lessons as Software Carpentry’s Plotting and Programming in Python and Programming with Python.
