Goals of the Hour
- have fun
- learn some stuff about big brain data
- not sound like john cleese
(ask questions if i do)
What is Neuroscience?
What is a Brain?
What is a Multi-Spectral Brain?
What is a Living Brain?
What is a See-Through Brain?
What is a Human Brain Network?
How do we learn about the mind-brain relationship from big data?
Wonder!
Consider
- who will this impact?
- how much will it impact them?
- what do we already know about this?
- how might we make progress?
- what might impede progress?
- who else can contribute?
- what can i most passionately contribute?
Don't consider
is it possible?Store
- hierarchical memory
- small # of disk accesses
- multiscale representation
Explore
Parse
- geometric stitch
- chromatic correction
- segment
- semantic label
Analyze!
- matrices
- shapes
- graphs
- time-series
Are brain networks independent of creativity?
Are male brain networks different from female brain networks?
Are synapses distributed uniformly in cortex?
Are there different types of synapses?
And so much more....
