Sign up if there is stil room.
Are you in the process of writing an abstract and could use some help? Join us on December 2 for a virtual workshop with our P.I., Konrad Kording

✨ You can submit an abstract in progress for a chance to have it workshopped live!
Rigorous and Glamorous in 100 Words or Less 2.0 - An abstract-writing workshop with Konrad Kording
It’s hard to write an abstract. It’s harder to write a glamorous one that tells your story without overselling your results.

Truly heroic work by the stellar @cieslakmatt.bsky.social + the HBCD dMRI working group team. Refactored QSIPrep + QSIRecon is the result of nearly 3y of concerted development + testing. It will be a total workhorse for HBCD -- and almost any other dMRI scan. Check it out for your data!!!
