Dear all, a reminder about our course in Edinburgh at the end of next month - we still have spaces / registration is open until mid-April SPM COURSE 2013 IN EDINBURGH http://www.sbirc.ed.ac.uk/cyril/SPM-course/SPM_course_home.html This four-day course (22nd April - 25th.April) offers comprehensive coverage of all MRI-related aspects of SPM. Days 1 and 2 are aimed at beginners with little or no SPM experience, and we will cover all the basic analysis steps from spatial preprocessing to statistical analysis with the General Linear Model and data visualization and presentation. Days 3 and 4 are aimed at a more advanced audience, with topics ranging from Bayesian analysis methods and voxel-based morphometry to multivariate pattern classification and effective connectivity analysis. Both parts of the course can be booked separately or as a whole. The course is designed as follow: theoretical lectures in the morning, and practical and user-driven sessions at the computer in the afternoon. For the beginners, one computer per person is available (no need to bring your own), but attendees can pair if they wish to. For the advanced users, small groups will interact with a tutor for a demonstration - a choice of workshop is available (see website).
