The BrainHack School is open in priority to students registered at one of the four partner institutions. However, a quota of participants will be selected from outside of these universities, and possibly from outside of Canada. The selection of students is based on the following criteria:

  • ensuring a good diversity and complementarity of backgrounds across participants,
  • assessing whether participants will benefit from attending the school,
  • a lottery, if necessary.

Please apply for brainhack school with the form below and wait for confirmation of acceptance before registering through your university portal. There is a limited number of seats and priority will be given to students who take the course for credits. Check the information below for eligibility criteria.

  • Week 1 is an introduction to a range of computational tools, and is credited at McGill University (QLSC 612, “QLSC 612 - Fundamentals for Neuro Data Science”, Pr JB Poline, 3 credits).
  • Weeks 2-4 consist of designing and implementing a project. Graduate students can get credit for the project either at the Psychology department of Montreal University (PSY 6983 - Project in neural data science, Pr P Bellec, 3 credits), or at the computer science engineering department of Concordia University (COMP 490 or COMP 6971, projects, Pr T Glatard, 3 credits).
  • By registering through the office of inter-university cooperation, it is possible to get credit for both parts of the course, for a total of 6 credits. Brainhack schools also welcome participants from outside the four partner institutions, including from outside Québec and Canada.
