Coding for Brain Decoding (CODE) is a summer program designed to provide hands-on training in python programming to undergraduate students interested in brain imaging research. No previous brain imaging research experience is required. All undergraduates at the Ohio State University are welcome to apply. This course will meet in-person on Wednesdays, from 11am to 2pm, beginning on June 25 and ending on July 30. There is no cost for the program, and registrants need only a computer.
This course aims to help students with their professional development and to give students the professional skills that they need to be successful in a neuroimaging environment and to teach students about the popular and user-friendly Python programming language and how to use it for neuroimaging analysis.
Python is fast becoming the most popular programming language for scientific computing and knowledge of Python is a frequently sought-after skill that professors look for when recruiting students into their labs. In this practical portion of this course, you will learn basic programming concepts in Python and will build on this to conduct basic fMRI decoding analyses in Python. All you need is a computer with a web browser!
