CCN introduction to EEG

Description

The purpose of this 2-day course is to provide a basic introduction to the EEG methodology and analysis for researchers interested in pursuing human EEG research. The course provides a general introduction to the basics behind EEG (and MEG) so that the participants understand the origin of the signal, including var- ious artifacts and considerations, before engaging in data collection. Following the general theoretical in- troduction, the participants will be introduced to our EEG system from Brain Products and how to prepare EEG data collection. Next a limited number will be trained in how to prepare a test participant and collect sample data for EEG analysis. Due to Covid-19 we can only allow a limited number of people in the lab and plan to live stream or pre-record elements for those who are not able to go in the lab. In addition, the course will also be live streamed via zoom allowing participants to join in for the course as a webinar. After the data collection on the second day we will use these data to explore how to clean and analyze EEG data. Course participants are recommended to bring their own laptop with MATLAB installed (version R2007a (7.4) to R2020b (9.9)).

The course will be divided into different parts:
1- Introduction to EEG – Background and theory
2- Introduction to EEG – Practical demonstration
3- Hands-on session: EEG data acquisition
4- Hands-on session: Data analysis on acquired data
