Computational Tutorials

About us:

BCS Computational Tutorial series was a student-led initiative that helps to promote and teach novel computational methods. The goal was to bring researchers in brain and cognitive sciences closer to the researchers creating computational methods. A computational tutorial can consist of any method, tool or model that is broadly relevant within neuroscience, cognitive science, and artificial intelligence.
Past tutorials have covered a wide range of topics from reinforcement learning and interactive physical simulations to analysis of temporal sequences and animal behavior tracking. The format of tutorials is flexible with each presenter. Typically, each tutorial consists of a short lecture, and an interactive part with tutorials or ‘office hours’ to work through practice problems, and discuss hurdles that attendees might encounter in their own research.

The recordings are hosted by MIT's OpenCourseWare.
