It is our pleasure to be able to officially announce that our biennial Tübinger Lesionanalysis Workshop will once again take place this year on the 8th and 9th of May.

As in previous years, the workshop aims to provide an extensive theoretical and practical, hands-on introduction to modern lesion analysis techniques. We will discuss the general rationale and background of modern analyses, spatial normalisation of brain images in stroke patients, the statistical procedures used in modern lesion analyses and the application of these modern lesion analysis techniques to scientific questions. Additionally, attendees will be given the opportunity to familiarise themselves with the software programs used in a practical, hands-on session.

Furthermore, this year, attendees will have the option to familiarise themselves with additional issues surrounding the scientific study of stroke patients on a second day. On this second day, we will discuss (semi)-automated lesion delineation techniques, single-case statistics that allow the identification of behavioural deficits in single patients, the complementary technique of inducing 'virtual lesions' with transcranial magnetic stimulation in neurologically healthy subjects and the issues surrounding fMRI in stroke patients.

For more information, please visit our lesion analysis workshop website. The registration deadline is April 30th 2015

We would love to see you there.
