This workshop is designed to give participants a broad overview of the entire lesion-symptom mapping pipeline, an introduction to current state-of-the-art methods, concerns and considerations when performing these analyses, and a flavor for some of the interesting analysis variants that are possible. This workshop is primarily geared towards individuals with an interest in learning how to implement the practice in your own research. We encourage you to follow along during the session using the provided materials below.
