Course description

Designed for doctoral candidates in neuroscience and related fields, this course will show you how network theory is useful to analyse your data, giving you hands-on experience on neuroimaging modeling from sMRI, DWI, fMRI, PET, EEG and MEG data. Importantly the same principles can be applied to other types of data such as multi-omics or clinical variables. Participants will construct, visualize, and quantify brain networks and will be able to build their own software with graphical user interface just by changing a few lines of code.
