== Notes for future workshops ==
 * The statistical analysis was completely overlooked. It didn't have a clear time slot in the program because the EEG/epilepsy dataset was not adapted to illustrate it, then it got skipped because we were running out of time. We need to make sure we introduce the stat features and the thresholding interface even with this dataset.
