Big Data in Neurophysiology: Devices, workflows and repositories

menu

Programme

Format of the meeting

 The workshop will take the form of a short retreat to encourage wide-ranging discussion and creative thinking. The workshop will take begin on Monday 2nd October noon until Tuesday 3rd October noon, with brief (15 mins) oral presentations and extended discussions after each session.

 The following key questions will be used to guide each discussion session:

Discussions will be centred around:

  1. The here and now –e.g. what ‘quick wins’ might be addressed.
  2. Short/medium term challenges – e.g. progress in “neurobiomarkers” tested, hot topics in translational research using neurophysiology
  3. Long term prospects – e.g. outcomes resulting from an increased use of neurophysiology and how this might shape future scientific and clinical directions

Pre-Workshop Survey

Prior to attending the workshop, participants will be asked to complete a short survey to identify:

  1.  A dream device that would cater for the participants specific clinical, research or commercial application
  2. Two key areas where cross disciplinary collaboration needs improvement

 Workshops

 The workshop will include four sessions with 5 x 15 min talks followed by 30 mins discussion

1. New sensors and devices: Emerging digital (neuro)biomarker
    Topics: SPHERE house, body sensor networks, commercial and open source EEG devices
2. Workflows and repositories: New strategies for large scale analysis
    Topics: Multivariate data analysis, statistical modelling, machine learning
3. Integration of devices, workflows and repositories in neurophysiology
    Topics: data management and sharing, digital health platforms, other wearable technology, defining canonical neurobiomarker
4. Clinical, researcher and industry demand for devices and analysis tools
    Topics: Sleep, Alzheimer’s Disease, Psychiatry, Genetics, longitudinal studies and Clinical trials
