Cutting EEG 2023 in Ghent University
Published:
This autumn, I had the opportunity to attend the Cutting EEG Worldwide Summit for the first time. During the transition to my upcoming position, I had the privilege of visiting UGent, my future host university, which was one of the 20 Cutting Gardens featured in this impressive 2023 edition.
On the menu : MNE (python package) tutorial, introduction to Bayesian Hidden-Markov models (HMM <3) and many interesting methodological talks. I was particularly absorbed by Jelmer Borst and Gabriel Weindel’s latest work on HMM solutions. They adapted these models to decompose cognitive stages of single event-related potentials and developped a python-friendly package adapted to ERPs analyses. Their slides and package are available on their Github repository.
A few days ago, my friend Yulong Huang, PhD at UGent came to me with this idea: What if we organised a scientific and social event in our department to share thoughts, results and ideas about research in social cognition ? 1, 2, 3, on Monday the invitation letter was sent to the department!
