PNiP

Perceptual Neuroimaging in Practice

Slides & Materials

Here you can find an overview of previous topics, complete with slides, example data and code for exercises and solutions. Note that most downloads are password protected, due to the use of real and raw example data. If you're part of the course or think you should have access for other reasons, just ping Ben for the password. Also note that PNiP conveniently skips the hard part - MRI physics. If you're interested in learning your spin precession, Bloch equation and k-Space, check out Marty Sereno's lecture series on the physics on youtube.
