Seminarraum Karl-von-Frisch-Straße 8a

The Brainhack School has existed for several years and was originally organized by researchers in Montreal, but has been adapted by various universities over the world. The Brainhack school is dedicated to teaching young researchers timely and important topics in the field of neurosciences, with a focus on neuroimaging research. Examples are: basics of fMRI research, programming with Python, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Git and GitHub, or visualization techniques.

We would like to offer this great opportunity to all young researchers in the field of neuroscience in and around Marburg. What is more, if you are a student of the Neuroscience Masters in Marburg, you can attend this school as an accredited course for your studies.

The concept of the school is as follows:

  • During the first two weeks participants go through 13 pre-recorded training modules. Exercises are completed together as a group and assisted by a local Teaching Assistant (TA).
  • By the end of week 2, participants should have formed groups (3-5 people) and decided on a project they want to work on together (you will be guided by Teaching Assistants and given access to both data as well as computing resources).
  • For the duration of two weeks the groups should work on this project for 2-3 hours on a daily basis. Here again, a TA is available for support. In the end, participants are asked to give a short presentation and to submit their project to the Global Brainhack School repository.

Dates for the school are June 3rd to June 28th 2024. Total amount of time for completing the Brainhack school is ~6 hours per day for the first 2 weeks for completing the learning modules and ~3h per day for weeks 3-4 for working on a project. Of course, if you are only interested in the learning modules, you are very welcome to only attend those without completing a project. You can find the detailed schedule here. The school will be held in-person in Marburg (room tba).

The Brainhack school mainly addresses Master’s students in neuroscience, psychology, neuro-linguisitics Early PhD students in the field of neuroscience, psychology, neuro-linguistics Advanced Bachelor’s students in psychology or linguistics
