Abstract:
Free MEG and EEG data analysis software packages springing from
academic research are now widely used in published work. These
toolboxes and applications are typically developed by or in close
contact with researchers addressing cognitive or clinical neuroscience
questions. Thus they often contain the latest methodological
developments from the research community. It is therefore vital to
educate MEG researchers and make them aware of the new possibilities
offered by these toolboxes. The aim of this paper is to illustrate the
characteristics and advantages of the various toolboxes to users and
developers alike. We present each toolbox with their key features and
target audience.
