This three-day course introduces the analysis of neuroimaging data, including Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and functional MRI (fMRI). It covers:
- Experimental design
- Pre-processing brain images
- Quantifying structural changes in the brain (Voxel-Based Morphometry, VBM)
- Quantifying brain function (using the General Linear Model, GLM)
- Statistics for neuroimaging (frequentist and Bayesian)
- Connectivity analysis (Dynamic Causal Modelling, DCM)
The course features a recently revised programme that balances theoretical talks and practical workshops. It is taught by an international faculty of neuroimaging experts from the Department’s Functional Imaging Laboratory (FIL) and collaborators. It is suitable both for beginners and more advanced users.
There are limited number of free places available to UCL students. To register via that path, please use this link: https://webapp.inkpath.co.uk/#/redirect/eyJuYW1lIjoiQWN0aXZpdHlEZXRhaWxQYWdlIiwicGFyYW1zIjp7ImlkIjo5MTIxNiwiY2FsZW5kYXIiOnRydWV9fQ==
