About event
The course is focused mainly on master‘s and doctor‘s degree students in the field of human brain mapping regardless of primary background. However, any basic knowledge about brain mapping will be convenient. Attendants will obtain theoretical and practical skills in several neuroimaging techniques.
Registration and a fee are required to participate in the course. This event is free of charge for PhD students in the Neuroscience field at Masaryk University. The fee prices are listed below for other participants. Please note that it is necessary to fill out the registration form and then make a purchase in the MUNI Shopping Center via the links below.
