Advanced Degree in Brain Data Encoders and Decoders– that’s 4 years worth of work

 So I decided to do a self-guided deep dive into the world of encoders and decoders applied to four neurosicence data modalities. A top Norwegian university allows you to submit a thesis for evaluation and they give you a degree if it passes quality requirements:-)

2 modalities in humans: EEG and fMRI

2 modalities in mice: NeuroPixels and Calcium Imaging

First two years I'll focus on EEG and fMRI and graduate to mouse data, which is much more difficult.
