Neuroinformatics

This article describes the world's first BSc course in Neuroinformatics, launched in 2009 at the Faculty of Physics, University of Warsaw. The curriculum includes solid background in physics, mathematics, informatics, statistics and signal processing, and parallel biomedical course from basics of biochemistry, biology and histology, to bioelectricity and neurobiology. Over 300 hours of biosignals laboratories are run entirely on GPL (open source) software, which students are free to explore, modify and use at no charge in future businesses including e.g. neurofeedback, brain-computer interfaces or eyetracking applications. Project of a matching MSc course has been submitted to the Ministry.
