Don't miss the next SciComm Seminar taking place on Monday, April 26 at 2pm
EST! The seminar will be held virtually via Zoom and registration

is free and open to anyone (you will receive the Zoom link when you
register).

*As research increasingly relies on big data and intense computation,
scientists need to be flexible and adaptable to various innovative modes of
collaboration, publishing and evaluation. This is even more critical when
one considers the resources that go into generating data and analysis
software. In this workshop we will introduce NeuroLibre, a preprint server
for Jupyter notebooks and other interactive data analyses that go beyond
the PDF to complement research articles. The first part of the workshop
will give a historical perspective of publishing and science communication,
emphasizing the need for transparency, data and code curation. In the
second part we will organize a hands-on tutorial where participants will
learn how to create a Jupyter Book and prepare a NeuroLibre submission.*


Dr. Nikola Stikov is associate professor of biomedical engineering, a
researcher at the Montreal Heart Institute, and co-director of NeuroPoly,
the Neuroimaging Research Laboratory at École Polytechnique, University of
Montreal. His research runs the gamut of quantitative magnetic resonance
imaging, from basic issues of standardization and accuracy, to biophysical
modeling, microstructural imaging and clinical applications. Dr. Stikov is
Junior Fellow of the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in
Medicine (ISMRM), and in 2018 he was elected to lead the society's
reproducibility study group. Continuing with his open science activities,
in 2019 Dr. Stikov joined the steering committee of the Canadian Open
Neuroscience Platform, leading the platform's publishing efforts.
