We are pleased to announce the 2016 HCP Course: “Exploring the Human Connectome”, to be held August 28-September 1 (Sunday-Thursday) at the Joseph B. Martin Conference Center at Harvard Medical School, in Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
This 5-day intensive course will provide training in the acquisition, analysis and visualization of whole-brain imaging and behavioral data from the Human Connectome Project (HCP) using methods and informatics tools developed by the WU-Minn HCP consortium plus data made freely available to the neuroscience community.
The course is designed for investigators who are interested in:
Participants will learn how to acquire, analyze, visualize, and interpret data from four major MR modalities (structural MR, resting-state fMRI, diffusion imaging, task-evoked fMRI) plus magnetoencephalography (MEG) and extensive behavioral data. Lectures and labs will provide grounding in neurobiological as well as methodological issues involved in interpreting multimodal data, and will span the range from single-voxel/vertex to brain network analysis approaches.
The course is open to graduate students, postdocs, faculty, and industry participants. The course is aimed at both new and existing users of HCP data, methods, and tools, and will cover both basic and advanced topics. Prior experience in human neuroimaging or in computational analysis of brain networks is desirable, preferably including familiarity with FSL and Freesurfer software.

We hope to see you in Bah-ston!
