Neuroscientists and electrophysiologists of Mastodon, what would your top choice analysis tool be for a novice getting started with working with ECoG data? I have a graduate student I will be co-mentoring starting this Fall who is very bright but has no programming experience, and I'd like to help her get up and running as quickly as possible. I've generally been a roll-my-own-analyses type of electrophysiologist so I don't have a favorite framework to get her started with. I know EEGLAB is popular, but my main experience with it has been helping other people get their Matlab path working properly again after something in EEGLAB clobbers it. I've played with MNE in Python but it doesn't seem to be as purely-GUI as EEGLAB and I don't want her to get bogged down in learning Python before she can do any analyses at all.

So, what's your favorite tool for ECoG analysis? What would you recommend a student who's starting from zero background in electrophysiology or programming begin to learn in 2024?

Boosts for reach appreciated. I also just like hearing folks' opinionated takes on their research tools.

Generalizable spelling using a speech neuroprosthesis in an individual with severe limb and vocal paralysis - Nature Communications

Previous work has described a neuroprosthesis to directly decode full words in real time during attempts to speak. Here the authors demonstrate that a patient with anarthria can control this neuroprosthesis to spell out intended messages in real time using attempts to silently speak.

Precision Neuroscience’s brain-computer interface sits on top of the brain, not in it. That could make it easier to implant, and less likely to damage tissue.

I've been negligent in my Mastodon etiquette. I'm told I'm supposed to start with an #introduction

I'm an #Anesthesiologist at MCW (Milwaukee, WI) with a clinical and research focus on #neurosurgery.

My early research focused on #fMRI applications to Neurosurg. Specifically, preoperative language mapping.

Nowadays, I've pivoted to #ECoG research using #MachineLearning to build devices. Very interested in #BCI and #IntraoperativeMapping

The amazing @Moatazassem has arrived on Mastodon!

Moataz does super cool work on task-active #brain regions using #fMRI and #ECoG, especially high-res HCP methods. Moataz also has a new #preprint out on the basis of executive functions in fine-grained architecture of cortical and subcortical human brain networks:

#introduction Hi! 👋

I’m a #CognitiveNeuroscience trainee interested in social cognition. This includes studying individual differences (like in #ASD) through #neuroimaging.

Currently a senior research coordinator utilizing precision #fMRI, #ieeg / #ecog, and electrode stimulation to study large-scale brain networks in individuals.

Also studied self-referential cognition in ASD and their parents with #EEG through a #Fulbright.

Applying to PhD programs in cognitive neuroscience this cycle.
... We demonstrate this adaptable pipeline approach by comparing the #SlowWave dynamics across multiple #OpenAccess #ECoG and #CalciumImaging datasets of anesthetized mice. In this meta-analysis, we can identify the influences of experimental parameters such as the anesthetic type and dosage and the spatial resolution of the recording technique.
The pipeline development is #opensource (#Python) and is already being reused for other research applications. ...

#Introduction 🧠

Hi folks! I’m a cognitive neuroscientist studying the brain networks involved in skilled action production. I use #fMRI, #DTI, #LesionSymptomMapping, and #ECoG.

I also enjoy talking about music, sports, running, and travel. Looking to make connections and build a community here.
