This workshop will focus on developing novel statistical methodology to analyze brain signals, which is crucial to understanding normal brain function and alterations associated with neurological and mental diseases. Brain signals are complex and are a reflection of the complexity of the unobserved brain processes. Thus, the primary considerations for developing statistical models are flexibility, generalizability, and incorporation of known biology. In this workshop, we will discuss the most recent challenges in this area and how the current methods need to be improved to better describe the observed brain signals.

With the advances of high-throughput technologies, genomics and related fields are hitting the thick data era. Many problems in biology cannot be studied with traditional and exact methods, and the development and application of tailored methods to analyze rich and large-scale biological datasets are still lagging behind. In addition, diverse layers of knowledge in genomics, such as transcriptomics, epigenomics, proteomics and metabolomics need to be integrated and studied jointly with multi-omics approaches to unfold the complex mechanisms of biological systems and organisms. Sparked with creative solutions from data science, computational and data scientists can contribute to the development and implementation of innovative solutions to extract, wrangle, visualize, analyze and store complex data resulting from high-throughput technologies with efficient, transparent and reproducible analytical pipelines.
