Full-day of lectures and a workshop on Brainstorm as part of the International Conference on [[https://www.aiepilepsy-neuro.com/|Artificial Intelligence in Epilepsy and Neurological Disorders in Breckenridge]]. This session will be hands-on Brainstorm features for sEEG analysis.

Participants will learn how to use Brainstorm and access its new tools on their personal laptops.

We will provide [[https://neuroimage.usc.edu/resources/bst_workshop/2024_lax/Walkthrough_lax_workshop_2024_v0.pdf|a detailed step-by-step walkthrough]] of the data analyses performed at the training. In addition, results obtained in this workshop can be replicated with '''this script (to be updated)'''.

End of the workshop, the main conference begins at 6 pm

== Bring your own data ==
The last session will be mostly dedicated to addressing participants' requests. We encourage you to bring in your own sample of data that you would be interested in processing with Brainstorm. We may ask that you pair with other attendees, for logistics purposes.

The file formats that can be read by Brainstorm are listed on the [[http://neuroimage.usc.edu/brainstorm/Introduction#Supported_file_formats|Introduction page]]. Please contact us in advance if you are not sure your dataset can be imported in Brainstorm. If you do not have data available, you may continue to use the tutorial dataset used in the present workshop.
