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 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.
Troubleshooting
For any technical problem, please contact Takfarinas Medani( medani@usc.edu ) or Raymundo Cassani ( raymundo.cassani@mcgill.ca )
Workshop dataset
TBD
Once you have successfully installed and tested Brainstorm (see previous section), proceed to download the dataset for the workshop.
https://box.bic.mni.mcgill.ca/s/XXXXX
Unzip the downloaded file on your desktop: it will create a new folder named workshop_XXXX
brainstorm3: the software folder, containing the source code and the compiled executable
brainstorm_db: your Brainstorm database (which should be empty for now)
workshop_XXXX: Dataset used during the workshop session
