Hi there -
The FSL part of the Neuroinformatics course will be given by myself and
Christian Beckmann, and will be specifically aimed at tools which are
useful for connectivity. I will be talking about inferring anatomical
connetivity with diffusion tractography ( a new tool which will hopefully
be included in the next FSL release) and Christian will be speaking on
probabilistic ICA (melodic).
Thanks very much
Tim
