[BIC-announce] NeuroCarpentry Lunch & Learn - three sessions coming up!

[Theodore J P Strauss, Mr]

Hello BIC,
I'm pleased to share this announcement for a series of 3 classes on neuroinformatics for reproducible neuroscience. organized by a dedicated group of collaborators. Please follow the links for details. We hope to see you there.

Background
Since 2018, a group of neuroscientists from several Canadian universities and institutions have been collaborating to create and teach a curriculum for neuroimaging analysis and neuroinformatics. Adopting open standards like BIDS and fostering FAIR principles is among the strategic goals of this training program. This project is seeking a form of accreditation from The Carpentries, whose vision is to be the leading inclusive community teaching data and coding skills. For this reason, we name our effort NeuroCarpentry.

The collaborators: Erin Dickie, Jerry Jeyachandra, Jason Kai, Michael Joseph, Sara Stephenson, Nikhil Parag Bhagwat, Patrick Bermudez, Michael Dayan, Paule-J Toussaint, Swapna, Jon Haitz Legarreta, Olivia Stanley, JB Poline, Ted Strauss, James Desjardins.

Thank you
