As a part of the activities in this group, we will provide an Overview of multivoxel pattern analysis (MVPA) and practice of representational similarity analysis (RSA), a method of MVPA, as a "Functional MRI Research Training Course" for domestic functional MRI researchers.

Undergraduate students, graduate students (masters and doctoral), researchers (postdoctoral fellows and corporate researchers), and anyone who is interested are welcome to attend, however, this program is open to researchers who have already conducted or plan to conduct issue-related fMRI research and would like to perform representational similarity analysis.

In addtion, the ability to program in matlab is also desirable. We look forward to seeing you there.
