We are pleased to announce that applications are now open for two SSI Fellows' events: Niko Sirmpilatze's "Animals in Motion" and Alessandro Felder's "Big Imaging Data". These events will take place during the Neuroinformatics Open Software Week running between Monday 11 and Friday 15 August in London.
The Neuroinformatics Open Software Week will bring together researchers, developers, and users of open-source neuroscience software for some hands-on training, community-building and hacking. There will be three main tracks:
- Animals in motion: using open-source tools to track and analyse animal motion from video footage
- BrainGlobe: using the BrainGlobe ecosystem of computational neuroanatomy tools to analyse whole-brain microscopy datasets
- Big Imaging Data: bridging technical gaps and communities to process and analyse large 3D imaging datasets with open-source tools
There will also be a series of satellite events:
- Introduction to Python
- Alternative research careers clinic
- Collaborative coding with Git
- Hackday
The event is free for all participants and a limited number of travel stipends will be available.
