On the acquisition computer, the menu bars have been minimized for data collection. The acquisition computer, stimulation computer, and analysis computers all have been upgraded to ASA4.7. Some command lines in previous analysis scripts will not work properly.

If online video is needed (such as infant EEG recording), change the setting to "Start with EEG" for video. The video setting needs to be reset to "Start manually after the experiment. Otherwise, the default mode would be recording EEG with online video. Online monitoring is sufficient for most experiments, and the recorded video synchronized with EEG would be unnecessary.

12 subjects completed. Data analysis under way. New IRB for fMRI study have been submitted. New program in Eprime is being made for one block design study and one event-related design study.

Sharon and Yang have been re-certified to be fMRI operators. Zach is being trained to be an fMRI operator, and he is expected to be certified in three weeks.

We are in the process of emailing digital MRI pictures to the individual participants in our speech and voice processing study.
As of today, 11 subjects' data have been processed. The remaining subjects will have receive their MRIs no later than this weekend.
Thank you for your participation!

We have run eight subjects so far. Sometimes, the audio connections are completely dissembled at the MRI room. Make sure to check audio through headset. If no sound is delivered, check the cable connections and the setup on neidrui computer in the console room before sending the subject in the MRI scanner.

AFNI and BrainVoyager will be installed on Zhanglab Mac (Intel-based 64 bit computer with 12 GB RAM, OS X 10.5) as of 11/21. BrainVoyager is still available on the Dell Precision Workstation as before. Running BrainVoyager requires the USB Key.

Other available brainimaging software on Mac: FSL, Freesurfer, MNE, SPM8, Matlab2008.

Dr. Philip Burton, co-investigator of the fMRI project on speech and voice processing, will give tutorials on fMRI data analysis.

Digitization using head surface points for adjustment was successful. Exporting was limited to 3d coordinates. Nasion, LPA, RPA, GRND are included in the exported file. For ASA, these four channels should be deleted from the .elc file. For MNE, nasion, LPA, RPA are required.

MRI scans have very tight schedule. To save time, it is better to familiarize subjects with the screening, consent, payment, and handedness before they go to CMRR.

ASA 4.7 upgrade on lab computers
Yang Zhang (guest) 1257111051|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
in discussion Lab users / Lab issues » ASA 4.7 upgrade on lab computers

ASA4.7 upgrade is available through ANT web site. You can test all its features using the trial software on your own computer for up to 30 days.

The following lab computers have ASA4.7 installed, zhanglab02 (laptop), zhanglab03, zhanglab06, and zhang office computer.
Do not install any software (including official upgrade versions) on the lab computers without seeking permission. The upgrade versions (such as Windows 7 or Mac Snow Leopard) do not necessarily work with the current computer configuration and existing key software packages such as EEvoke, Eprime, Visual Studio, Matlab and toolboxes, etc.

This new format follows the popular monobook style. The program has not been tested with all major browsers. Firefox 3.0+ is recommended.
