The protocol described here presents the complex workflow required for sequencing and the bioinformatics process used to identify genetic variants that contribute to disease. Neuroscience Applications of EEG Neuroimaging Data: Event-related Potentials, Spectral Power, and Multiscale Entropy Jennifer J. Heisz1, Anthony R. McIntosh1 1Rotman Research Institute, Baycrest Neuroimaging researchers typically consider the brain's response as the mean activity across repeated experimental trials and disregard signal variability over time as "noise". However, it is becoming clear that there is signal in that noise. This article describes the novel method of multiscale entropy for quantifying brain signal variability in the time domain.
