PhD Kurs og Seminarer

Hver student burde ha tilgang til MATLAB®, helst på sin egen bærbar maskin med følgende programvare installert:

1. MATLAB. High-level technical computing language and interactive environment for algorithm development, data visualization, data analysis, and numeric computation. UiB-studenter som ikke enda har programmet skal ha tilgang via https://apps.uib.no/ eller Software Center på PCen sin. Eksterne studenter skal kunne laste ned en gratis 30-day trial fra MathWorks nettsiden: www.mathworks.com/campaigns/products/trials.html?s_tid=srchtitle_site_search_1_trial
2. SPM12 for MRI analysis. SPM12 nedlastningen finnes her: https://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/docs/installation/
3. CONN toolbox for resting-state fMRI analysis. CONN toolbox nedlastningen finnes her: https://web.conn-toolbox.org/resources/conn-installation 

Når programvaren er installert, sjekk at installasjonen fungerte ved å gjøre følgende:

• Åpne Matlab
• Skriv "spm" i Command Window
• Klikk "fMRI"
• Klikk "Toolbox.conn"

Eventuelle problemer med installasjonen kan forhåpentligvis løses under første kursdag, ettersom programmet skal brukes fra og med andre kursdag. 

Datasettet som skal brukes under fMRI øvelsene finner du her https://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/data/auditory/
