B.R.A.I.N. Lecture

Brain’s Resilience And Intelligence Networks (B.R.A.I.N. lecture) Virtual keynote lectures on Cognitive Resilience/Reserve The lecture series focuses on cognitive resilience/reserve, with a strong emphasis on neuroimaging of structural and functional networks that underlie resilience. The keynote lectures will have a strong conceptual focus, proposing theories on the brain’s structural and functional underpinnings of cognitive resilience. […]

Summer Roundtables 2020

Discussions involving faculty outside of our field on a specific topic that is new to us. We typically read more than one paper for each meeting, and it is overall a way to be exposed to a new topic.  More specifically the process of developing biomarkers for prognostic diagnostic value using population based evidence will […]

T32 PNA Training – Helmet Karim, PhD Assistant Professor WPIC

Topic: I'll cover elastic net, lasso, and ridge approaches (which are regularized regression approaches). These approaches work well for continuous data like cognitive function. I'll also review the following topics: feature reduction approaches, cross-validation, preprocessing, hyperparameter optimization, and a basic implementation in R.
