Comments about the workshop
Good clarity:
Too fast at moments
Too fast in general:
Good pace:
Too much for one day:
Missing topics and requests
- More discussions on the methods/parameters:
- Introduction to MEG:
- Theoretical background for all the steps:
- Importing pre-processed data:
- Export data to other programs:
- Combined MEG+EEG:
- More on statistics:
- More on scripting:
- More on source localization:
- Better overview of the software interface:
- Shorter software introduction:
Missing tools in Brainstorm
- Interpolation of bad channels:
- Real-time analysis:
- Statistics:
- ICA :
- NIRS:
- Source estimation of TF data:
Technical issues
- One win64 computer crashing randomly with 2014b compiled, working with 2012b compiled
- Packaged binaries: missing scripts
