Aim of the course
The course is intended to provide advanced Diploma/Masters and PhD students,
as well as young researchers from the neurosciences with approaches for the
analysis of electrophysiological data and the theoretical concepts behind
them.
The course includes various topics such as
* Neuron models and spike train statistics
* Point processes and correlation measures
* Systems and signals
* Local field potentials and synaptic plasticity
* Neuronal data analysis using <http://find.bccn.uni-freiburg.de/>
FIND
The course will consist of lectures in the morning and and matching
exercises using Matlab and Mathematica. Experience with these software
packages will be helpful but is not required for registration. This course
is designated especially for advanced diploma/master-students and
PhD-students (preferentially in their first year).
