CENA
The Chicago Electrical Neuroimaging Analytics
The Brain Dynamics Laboratory, in collaboration with the Center for Cognitive and Social Neuroscience and the Research Computing Center, has developed a revolutionary method to segment evoked brain dynamics: CENA
WHAT IS CENA?
- The Chicago Electrical Neuroimaging Analytics (CENA) is a new dynamic spatiotemporal brain analysis suite of tools that allows the automatic detection of event-related changes in the global pattern and global field power of electrical brain activity.
- CENA differentiates transition states from stable evoked brain microstates.
- CENA is an analytic toolbox for brain microstate analyses, running under Matlab environment as a freely available plugin in Brainstorm (Tadel et al., 2011).
CENA FAQs
HOW DO I OBTAIN CENA?
CENA is made freely available to non-profit researchers in electrical neuroimaging at degree-granting academic institutions.
If you would like access to CENA, you can download it from the Brainstorm link above or send us an email requesting access at braindynamics@uchicago.edu.
