Introduction to Neuroimaging Methods
Lectures and Workshops
Lectures and workshops will take place on Wednesdays, 14.30, either in the CBU West Wing Seminar Room or Lecture Theatre (see below).
Some of these events are synchronised with Rik Henson's SPM lectures (http://www.talks.cam.ac.uk/show/index/12102).
Look here for other training opportunities in and around Cambridge.
Please contact OlafHauk with questions and feedback.
