fMRI Bootcamp

This video lecture series begins with an introduction to the basics of anatomical and functional MRI and the time course of the fMRI signal, then delves into several methods for analyzing fMRI data. The series emphasizes how to think about fMRI data and the steps of analysis rather than the technical execution of each step.

• fMRI Bootcamp Part 1 - Basics of fMRI
• fMRI Bootcamp Part 2 - fMRI timecourse
• fMRI Bootcamp Part 3 - Univariate analysis
