The second BrainVoyager 2000 training course will take place on 11th and 12th of August 2000. It will be held by Rainer Goebel, author of BrainVoyager, together with colleagues who have at least one year of intensive experience in using the software. In the morning lectures, essential topics on how to use BrainVoyager will be presented. The afternoon sessions offer the opportunity to work with BrainVoyager on example data. These exercises are supervised by six tutors. For these exercises, several powerful workstations (Dual Pentium III 733 MHZ, Athlon 800 MHZ) are available. Attendees should be familiar with basic concepts of functional MRI and statistics.
Note, that the number of participants is limited to 20 persons. The participation costs are EUR 150 which cover the course, lunch and refreshments. It does not include hotel costs. If you are interested in participating on this course, send an email to Course@BrainVoyager.com. You will then receive further information about the course. Note that due to preregistrations, only limited space is available.
