Dear colleagues
This week we will discuss the design of a set of MEG and fMRI
experiments that could be used to form the basis of a 'gold-standard'
dataset that could be used to compare and contrast current MEG analysis
techniques as well allow the testing of future analysis algorithms.
Andy Young has proposed that we start this exercise by collecting data
that would primarily activate sensory cortices as one should be able to
predict the outcome. The aim would be to collect data in as 'perfect' a
manner as possible and would include the recording of eye movements, EOG
and ECG signals. The specific design of the experiments will be
discussed this Thursday at 4pm. We will also discuss how we will use a
suite of analysis tools to examine different source localisation and
reconstruction methods. Examples of how this could be achieved will be
presented by members of the YNiC team but the idea is that an analysis
task-force would be encouraged to tackle the data.
One of the aims is to use this data to refine our data analysis and
statistical methods. We hope this will lead to clear guidelines as to
the 'best' way to approach MEG experimentation and source analysis. The
outcomes will determine how we develop the analysis software framework
and will, hopefully, result in even clearer documentation for users as
well as publications.
Do come and contribute. All welcome
