Course Description

Learn the theory and practice of using FSL for structural, functional and diffusion image analysis. The course is designed for people at all skill levels, from those with little or no experience through to intermediate users of FSL. This course is based around a set of self-paced, hands-on, guided practicals, supported by expert tutors and a broad set of accessible lectures. Each daily practical session will last half a day, with an additional online lecture to watch beforehand. The course will run for two weeks, and you can select from two available time zones; course A (earlier time zone) or course B (later time zone). After completing the course, attendees should be able to analyse their own structural, functional and diffusion MRI data sets.

Each attendee will need to have their own computer (Mac, Windows, Linux) and a reasonable internet connection in order to access the cloud-based desktop and for video conferencing with tutors in the guided practical sessions. 

We welcome all skill levels, and we have self-paced primer material to get you started before attending. The methods covered are primarily aimed at applications in basic science and clinical research (not clinical practice). We will be inclusive, supporting users in all countries, and we want to support our diverse users at all career stages.

All lectures and practical material will be in English.

This course does not provide any CME credits.
