For the first of the open webinars in Journal Club format, we are pleased to welcome Dr. Meryem Yücel to talk about the recently released paper on best practices in fNIRS (doi.org/10.1117/1.NPh.8.1.012101). With the rapid growth and the diversification of research methods in fNIRS studies, some inconsistencies are appearing in the way in which methods are presented, which can make the interpretation and replication of studies unnecessarily challenging.
A representative group of leaders in the field of fNIRS (including Dr. Yücel) was assembled by the Society for Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy to build a consensus on the best practices for describing the methods utilized in fNIRS studies. Their "paper has been designed to provide guidelines to help enhance the reliability, repeatability, and traceability of reported fNIRS studies and encourage best practices throughout the community."
In this talk, Dr. Yücel will highlight the major points of emphasis to consider as described in this paper. In this Journal Club format, we will hear from our distinguished speaker for 30 minutes followed by 15 minutes of Q&A and discussion.
