Aim

Availability of clinical, genomic and neuroimaging data combined with recent advances in ICT, data mining and computational modelling makes it possible to extract unique biological signature of brain diseases. The course will focus on how to conduct neuroimaging studies in the context of neurological disorders using structural and functional MRI data within the framework of Statistical Parametric Mapping (SPM). We will cover in theoretical and practical sessions all aspects of imaging data analysis from spatial pre-processing to statistical inference and reporting results. The course is suitable for beginners, and for those with previous experience of SPM.
