Simulations
Author: Francois Tadel
This tutorial addresses everything that can be called "simulation" in Brainstorm: simulation of simple signals, simulation of full source maps from a few scouts, simulation of MEG/EEG recordings from source maps (real or synthetic). Its goal is to group all the information that was spread across multiple tutorials and forum posts.

A great simulation article was published by Prof. Debener's neuropsychology lab in Oldenburg. It uses Brainstorm to evaluate and improve the design of ear-EEG devices:
