Brainstorm Tutorials
The following pages will take you through a typical workflow of data analyses that will feature most of the tools and applications of Brainstorm. We are updating these pages constantly, keeping up with new developments and features in the software.
You are therefore welcome to suggest improvements and additions but also to contribute by becoming an editor of this wiki. Please email us if you would like to contribute.
Required background
These tutorial pages suppose you are comfortable with the basic concepts of MEG and EEG source imaging. If you're not, we engage you to read some background information, which will quickly help you getting up to speed with this field:
A non-technical overview of MEG and EEG, with an emphasis on source modeling: here,
