Brain regions and the whole brain
Measurement of activity in brain regions and across the whole brain: high-density probes, EEG, fMRI and transcranial magnetic stimulation.
- Recording the P300 with EEGRecording of the P300, the brain’s response to rare target tones, in one volunteer and then in a group, from consent to statistical analysis.Guided experiment
- Mapping brain activity with fMRIMapping of the brain area that controls finger movement with fMRI, in one simulated volunteer and then in a group, with the participant as the unit of analysis.Guided experiment
- Recording many neurons at once with a silicon probeThe spikes of several neurons are recorded at once with a high-density silicon probe in a simulated mouse cortex and sorted into single neurons, with every decision from the insertion of the probe to the analysis made at the bench.Guided experiment
- Measuring motor cortex excitability with TMSTMS is applied to people only by trained staff, under a protocol approved by an ethics committee; every volunteer here is simulated. The session covers screening and consent, EMG from a hand muscle, the hotspot, the resting motor threshold, and the excitability of the motor cortex in one person and then in a group.Guided experiment
- High-density recording and spike sortingRecording of many neurons with a silicon probe and sorting of their spikes, checked against the known true assignment.Simulator
- EEG and event-related potentialsBrain responses to rare and frequent sounds, and the averaging that reveals the P300.Simulator
- fMRI experiment designThe timing of an fMRI experiment and its effect on the power to detect brain activity.Simulator
- Transcranial magnetic stimulation and motor evoked potentialsA TMS session with simulated participants: screening, hotspot, motor threshold, recruitment curve and paired-pulse inhibition, recorded by EMG.Simulator
