Brief description:

The Summer School will be a 5-day long teamwork based and project oriented program, held in the RoNeuro Institute of the University of Medicine and Pharmacy Cluj-Napoca. On the first day of training, participants will be given an overview of EEG basics before being sent off to a hands-on training experience in QEEG and other technologies for the rest of the program. They will have the chance to observe and apply different analytical methods like Independent Component Analysis, Principal Component Analysis and Fast Fourier Transform, as well as learn about various technologies like Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy, Magnetoencephalography, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and more. In groups, the participants will create different projects, which will be presented at the end of the program.

Number of ECTS granted: 3 ECTS
