Speaker information
- Keep in mind that the audience is diverse, ranging from MR physicists to psychologists and medical doctors. Most people have a background in neuroscience.
- A good presentation length is 30-45 minutes to allow for discussion afterwards.
- Presentations are shown on an LCD screen (ratio 16:9) via a USB wifi dongle.
- A laser pointer doesn't work on the screen, an old-fashioned pointing stick will be ordered
Potential topics
- Best Practices in Data Analysis and Sharing in Neuroimaging using MRI
- A Practical Guide for Improving Transparency and Reproducibility in Neuroimaging Research
- Mythbusters: adult neurogenesis?
- In vivo quality control at the SC
- Responsible Reporting: Neuroimaging News in the Age of Responsible Research and Innovation
- Interpreting BOLD
- PractiCal fMRI blog
