UCL Institute of Neurology (D07)The Institute of Neurology was established in 1950, merged with UCL in 1997, and is a key component of the Faculty of Brain Sciences at UCL. The Institute has eight academic Departments, which encompass clinical and basic research within each theme. In parallel, there are currently six Divisions representing professional affiliations. FOR ALL QUERIES PLEASE USE THE CONTACT TABS FOUND IN EACH OF THE INDIVIDUAL COURSES/CONFERENCES AND PRODUCTS, PLEASE ONLY CONTACT THE ONLINE STORE DIRECTLY IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING PAYMENT DIFFICULTIES.
UCL Institute of Neurology (D07)D07 Erasmus Course on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (EMRI) - Central Nervous System I 2024DescriptionErasmus Course on Magnetic Resonance Imaging is a course dedicated to excellence in interactive MR teaching since 1991. http://www.emricourse.org/index.html
D07 Statistical Parametric Mapping For MEG/EEG 2024DescriptionThe course will present instruction on the analysis of EEG and MEG data. The first three days will combine theoretical presentations with practical demonstrations of the different data analysis methods implemented in SPM. On the last day participants will have the opportunity to work on SPM tutorial data sets under the supervision of the course faculty. We also invite students to bring their own data for analysis. The course is suitable for both beginners and more advanced users. We advise students to gain at least some minimal familiarity with the methodology, for example, from reading introductory articles available from the SPM web page (http://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/doc/) or by scanning through Litvak et al. (2011) ‘EEG and MEG data analysis in SPM8’, Comput Intell Neurosci 2011:852961." https://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/course/london/
D07 Neurology 2024: Leading Edge Neurology For the Practising Clinician.DescriptionThis two-day course (run by the UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology) is designed for consultants and trainees at all levels in neurology and other neuroscience specialties, from the UK, Europe and worldwide, and aims to provide a practical update on the hospital management of neurological diseases. The focus of the course is on everyday neurological practice which will include lectures, a quiz and a CPC. The course will be didactic, but also entertaining and informative.

D07 Final Year Electives for Medical StudentsDescriptionThe Institute of Neurology offers a limited number of undergraduate Elective placements, to final year medical students from the UK and abroad, which are booking at least 18 months in advance. These placements are not strictly structured - it is advisable to be as pro-active as possible. It is up to the individual student to choose the activities they wish to attend, within their assigned clinical group/formal teaching programme, which would most benefit them during their placement. https://www.ucl.ac.uk/ion/study/electives-medical-students
D07 The Hot Brain 2 - Climate Change & Brain HealthDescriptionClimate change is here: we see its impacts daily around the world. 2023 was the hottest year on record. People with neurological disease may be amongst those affected first and most severely. The incidence of some neurological diseases is likely to rise, whilst healthcare systems will become increasingly compromised in providing care for people affected. Climate change will impact the professional lives of healthcare providers. Even if greenhouse gas emissions are stopped today, there will still be further rises in global temperatures, with all their accompanying consequences. We need to act now for brain health in this changing environment. Following on from last year’s successful meeting, the aims of this year’s meeting are to raise awareness about the risks of climate change for the brain and neurological healthcare, to nurture global collaborative research, and to promote action against climate change and foster adaptation strategies. The meeting is jointly organised by UCL and The Lancet Neurology.

D07 Statistical Parametric Mapping for fMRI and MRI/VBM 2024DescriptionThis three-day course introduces the analysis of neuroimaging data, including Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and functional MRI (fMRI). It covers: Experimental design Pre-processing brain images Quantifying structural changes in the brain (Voxel-Based Morphometry, VBM) Quantifying brain function (using the General Linear Model, GLM) Statistics for neuroimaging (frequentist and Bayesian) Connectivity analysis (Dynamic Causal Modelling, DCM) The course will be divided into theoretical and practical sessions, in which the SPM software package will be used to analyse exemplar data sets. The SPM course is taught by an international faculty of neuroimaging experts from the Wellcome Centre for Human Neuroimaging (WCHN) and collaborators. The course is suitable for beginners and more advanced users.
