The EPFL is offering a free online course on Simulation Neuroscience. The aim is to build a unified empirical picture of the brain, to study the biological mechanisms of brain function, behavior and disease.
In this six week course, applicants will learn how to digitally reconstruct a single neuron to better study the biological mechanisms of brain function, behavior, and disease. This course is self-paced.
Course At A Glance 
Length: 6 weeks
Effort: 5-8 hours pw
Subject: Biology & Life Sciences
Institution: EPFL and edx
Languages: English
Price: Free
Certificate Available: Yes, Add a Verified Certificate for $49

Providers’ Details
EPFL is the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne. The past decade has seen EPFL ascend to the very top of European institutions of science and technology: it is ranked #1 in Europe in the field of engineering by the Times Higher Education (based on publications and citations), Leiden Rankings, and the Academic Ranking of World Universities.
About This Course
This course is part of a series of three courses, where you will learn to use state-of-the-art modeling tools of the HBP Brain Simulation Platform to simulate neurons, build neural networks, and perform your own simulation experiments. We invite you to join us and share in our passion to reconstruct, simulate and understand the brain!
Why Take This Course?
This is a unique, massive open online course taught by a multi-disciplinary team of world-renowned scientists. In this first course, you will gain the knowledge and skills needed to create simulations of biological neurons and synapses.
Learning Outcomes

Discuss the different types of data for simulation neuroscience
How to collect, annotate and register different types of neuroscience data
Describe the simulation neuroscience strategies
Categorize different classification features of neurons
List different characteristics of synapses and behavioural aspects
Model a neuron with all its parts (soma, dendrites, axon, synaps) and its behaviour
Use experimental data on neuronal activity to constrain a model

“People who succeed have momentum. The more they succeed, the more they want to succeed, and the more they find a way to succeed. Similarly, when someone is failing, the tendency is to get on a downward spiral that can even become a self-fulfilling prophecy.”
