MEG and EEG Data Analysis Using MNE Software

Basics

MEG/EEG data analysis in [http://www.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/martinos/userInfo/data/sofMNE.php MNE software] uses information from structural [wiki:ImagingSequences MRI] images, which have to be pre-processed using [http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/ Freesurfer]. You may want to start with the tutorial based on an example data set, as described in the MNE manual ([http://www.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/meg/manuals/MNE-manual-2.6.pdf Version 2.6] or [http://www.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/meg/manuals/MNE-manual-2.7.pdf Version 2.7]; chapter 12), or look at [http://www.martinos.org/mne/ some example scripts]. Freesurfer is accompanied by extensive [http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki Freesurfer Wiki pages], containing a [http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/FreeSurferBeginnersGuide Getting Started] and [http://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/UserContributions/FAQ FAQ] section. You will need some experience with Linux commands and scripting, which you may find on our [wiki:meg:Beginners beginners' pages].

If you've never used shell scripts before, this [wiki:AnalyzingData/Primer_ShellScripting primer on shell scripting] will get you on the way.

There is also a short description on how to [wiki:AnalyzingData/MNE_prepare prepare for MNE analysis and access the Matlab toolbox].

Look here for [http://mne-tools.github.com/mne-python-intro/ MNE Python tools], e.g. for time-frequency analysis and sensor-space statistics.

The parameters in the following examples are reasonable choices for standard analyses. However, these Wiki pages are not supposed to substitute the MNE manual ([http://www.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/meg/manuals/MNE-manual-2.6.pdf V2.6], [http://www.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/meg/manuals/MNE-manual-2.7.pdf V 2.7]), [wiki:MEGpapers reading papers], and [wiki:ImagersInterestGroup discussions] with more experienced researchers.
