Rik Henson gave a short SPM course at the Department of Psychology at the University during four lectures from February-March 2008. Below are copies of the slides:

  1. [attachment:henson-SPM-Grad08-1-preproc.ppt Spatial preprocessing (Realigment, unwarping, normalisation, smoothing, segmentation) and Computational Neuroanatomy e.g. voxel-based morphometry (VBM), deformation-based morphometry (DBM) and tensor-based morphometry (TBM)]
  2. The General Linear Model: global effects, correlation/orthogonalisation, time-series convolution models, high-pass filtering, temporal auto-correlation, maximum likelihood (ML) estimation, non-sphericity, Statistical Parametric Maps (SPMs) and Random Field Theory Correction, Random Effects, Parametric Empirical Bayes and PPMs
  3. Experimental design: event-related fMRI, temporal basis functions, design optimisation, nonlinearities, effective connectivity and dynamic causal modelling (DCM)
  4. SPM for EEG/MEG: space-time maps, inverse-problem, Bayesian formulation, model-evidence, canonical meshes
