[BIC-announce] The Virtual Brain Node #7 Workshop - in Montreal

[Tanya Brown]

Get up to speed about the fundamental principles of full brain network modeling
using the open-source neuroinformatics platformThe Virtual Brain (TVB) at our
2-day workshop, August7-8, 2018
TVBNODE#7 is an official satellite event to
Neuroinformatics 2018
Be sure to register for both!

TVB enables biologically realistic modeling of network dynamics using
Connectome-based approaches across different brain scales.

Generate macroscopic neuroimaging signals including fMRI, intracranial and
stereotactic EEG, surface EEG and MEG for single subjects.

Personalized brain network models can be derived from an individual’s MRI data.

Researchers from different backgrounds can benefit from an integrative software
platform including a supporting framework for data management (generation,
organization, storage, integration and sharing) and a simulation core written in
Python. Applications to use cases in the healthy and diseased brain are also
presented.

PROGRAM AT A GLANCE * A generative model of the brain;describing the building blocks of a brain
   network model
 * Interacting with TVB;working with the web UI, command line and scripting
   interfaces
 * Constructing personalized models from empirical data;learn how to take your
   own data and model it within the framework of TVB.
 * Brain stimulation in TVB
 * Clinical applications of TVB
 * Hands-on session;using the GUI and demo scripts to simulate epilepsy, stroke,
   neurodegenerative disease, brain stimulation and a mouse model


After the workshop you should have a basic picture of how these models are
built, how they work, and what biological properties of a neural system they
represent. In addition, we will highlight several research topics that can be
explored using this tool.The workshop is organized with interleaved oral
presentation and hands-on sessions. Attendants will have the time to ask
questions. The hands-on sessions will let you immediately apply the concepts
from the lectures to your simulations in TVB.
Bring your own device.Refreshments will be available during the breaks and lunch
will be provided.

WORKSHOP HAS LIMITED ATTENDANCE
Registration closes July 15th – claim your spot today!

This workshop is supported by INCF and organized by the TVB Team.Please contact
