Scientific project design in integrative neurosciences (BIO493)
This course is a project-based learning class, which provides a forum for students to engage themselves in learning how to design a scientific project that bridges scales and allows following the causal chain from one scale to the next. I am teaching this course together with my experimental neuroscience colleague, Prof. Carl Petersen from the Brain Mind Institute.
In silico neuroscience (BIOENG450)
‘In silico Neuroscience’ introduces students to a synthesis of modern neuroscience and state-of-the-art data management, modelling and computing technologies with a focus on the biophysical level. I am teaching this course together with my colleague Dr. Armando Romani from the Blue Brain Project.
MOOC ‘Simulation Neuroscience: reconstruction of a single neuron’
This MOOC teaches the science of and skills for building biophysically detailed neuron models. It combines lectures with online exercise providing access to modern IT infrastructures for neuroscience.
