Online Course – Certified Professional Internship in Neuroscience and Brain Imaging from Johns Hopkins University

Internship – a series of 4 courses

This specialization combines the power of 4 different neuroscience courses into a learning experience from France. The courses are delivered by Johns Hopkins University, and begin with fundamental neuroscience concepts for magnetic resonance imaging.

Course content

• The anatomy of the brain
• Principles of magnetic imaging
• Design of magnetic imaging experiments
• MRI of functional connectivity
• Diffusion tensor imaging
• Spectroscopic imaging

The specialization then continues with two courses that focus on functional magnetic imaging (fMRI), one of the most widely used methods for studying the brains of healthy people while they perform tasks and experience mental states.

Finally, the specialization deals with the implementation of neurohacking using the R programming language, along with associated packages, to manipulate, process, and analyze magnetic imaging data.

Applied Learning Project

Learners will move from fMRI data design, structure, and acquisition to using the R programming language and associated package to manipulate, process, and analyze magnetic resonance imaging data. In particular, you will learn how to:

• Read/write brain images in NIfTI format
• Imagine and explore these images.
• Perform a hardware failure repair
• Brainstorming and drawing an image (within a topic and within a template)
