Open Code
Introduction from BrainHack 2021 on how to get into version control by leveraging Git and Github
Datalad is a versatile data management and data publication multitool. In this session, you can learn the basic concepts and commands for version control and reproducible data analysis.
This session covers how containers can be useful for running the same software on different platforms and sharing analysis pipelines with other researchers.
This session transforms a spaghetti script written in MATLAB and turn it into an understandable and reusable code living happily in a powerful GitHub repository.
NiPreps is a series of libraries to facilitate the transformation of scanner data into consumable data for analysis (taken from documentation)
qsiprep configures pipelines for processing diffusion-weighted MRI (dMRI) data
Nipype is a Python project that provides a uniform interface to existing neuroimaging software and facilitates interaction between these packages within a single workflow (taken from documentation)
TE-dependent analysis (tedana)is a Python library for denoising multi-echo functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data. (taken from documentation)
Reproducibility
A tutorial on computational reproducibility given during BrainHack 2020
Tutorial from OHBM 2020 on building reproducible workflows around MRI data
A clear checklist on how to make your machine learning experiments reproducible
This session discusses different ways to organise a figure, and techniques that help organising. Additionally, it looks at approaches from visual practices based on design thinking.
Research Integrity
This video discusses several threats to research integrity: fraud, plagiarism, conflicts of interest and personal values. All these threats concern an abandonment of the basic scientific principles of openness, transparency, and critical and systematic empirical testing.
This video discusses a grey area of research integrity, referred to as questionable research practices (QRPs). Different types of QRPs are explained: harking, p-hacking, cherry-picking and selective omission.
This video discusses some important dissemination problems in scientific research. You learn about publication bias and the file drawer problem. These negative side-effects can be resolved by reforming the process for review and publication
Research Culture
Presentation on creating a global community with some interviews with Researchers connected to the Global South, describing some of the challenges they face around interacting with open science coming from the Global North.
Presentation on shaping research culture around credible and collaborative practices
ReproducibiliTea is a journal club which focuses on helping early career researchers build a local community of ECRs interested in open and reproducible research
COSN is a network for promoting open science practices and awareness of reproducibility in the Chinese-speaking community
Brainhack convenes researchers from across the globe and a myriad of disciplines to work together on innovative projects related to neuroscience.
