🧠 The EEG Research Pipeline: A Hands-On Bootcamp from Task Design to Analysis

December 16th-17th 2025. Central Nottingham, venue to be confirmed.

Join us for a two-day, practical deep dive into EEG research — organised in collaboration with ANT Neuro.

Day 1: Learn to design and optimise cognitive tasks for EEG using PsychoPy.

Day 2: Get hands-on experience with EEG data collection and ERP analysis strategies.

Whether you're new to EEG or planning your next project, this bootcamp offers interactive training, lightning talks, and networking opportunities with fellow researchers.

One-to-one tutorials

If you need to create a task for a specific project, but you'de like to learn along the way, build it with us!

  • Brief us on your project.
  • We create bespoke material on how to create your paradigm.
  • One-to-one video calls to co-create your task.
  • Learn PsychoPy and/or Pavlovia, and leave with your experiment!
Get in touch!

Arrange a workshop for your lab or department

In person or virtual, we can develop bespoke content to suit your needs

    We can cover a range of topics including:
  • Builder basics. Introduce your team to what is possible using the Builder interface to create a huge range of studies
  • Running experiments online with Pavlovia.
  • Get started with Python coding by making experiments - a fun, visual, way to learn how to code.
  • Learn how to create experiments that interact with a range of hardware, Eyetracking, EEG, fMRI, or something else!
  • Content tailored to Undergraduate, Postgraduate or Research Staff level.

💬 What Attendees say

“I'm grateful to the PsychoPy team for organizing an excellent workshop. The hands-on practice sessions were incredibly valuable, allowing us to create our own experiments. Rebecca was an exceptional trainer, and Sue provided great support in designing experiments during each session. Kim was also very helpful in setting up hardware connections. I highly recommend attending their workshop if you're looking to program experiments with PsychoPy.”

— Rai Samar G Bari, PhD Cognitive Neuroscience, Durham University

“The three workshops I attended were really fundamental in understanding the basics of the logic of designing and programming psychopy experiments. The lecturers were very helpful and precise. Thank you very much for the valuable events you organised.”

— Daniele, Univ. of L'Aquila

“There is great material on YouTube for learning psychopy, but the live workshops are interactive and we can meet the team, ask questions, and get to understand the broader logic of the psychopy/Pavlovia project. It is pleasant to get to know the people making it happen, and it is really great value for the knowledge you get.”

— Flavia Hendler, Haifa University

“If you're looking to get started with PsychoPy, this workshop is an absolute must-attend. By following the patient tutors step by step to create experiments, I've learned a lot, even some insights I hadn't anticipated.”

— Shiyu Li, Université de Montréal

“You can go from being completely lost at how to use psychopy to feeling super confident in your abilities over the workshop. I've gone from 0 experiments to having 2.5 experiments built! I'm certain this would have taken me as many months to get to this stage if I was on my own.If you're interested in running studies in the lab or online then this workshop is a must!”

— Alice Rees, Lancaster University

“I would highly recommend this workshop for anyone interested in using PsychoPy for their research! The workshop is extremely well organised and Becca, Jon and the rest of the team do a fantastic job in helping you develop the confidence and skills to effectively use PsychoPy. Whether you have a specific experiment that you’d like to build, or simply want to learn the basics, this workshop caters to researchers of all programming levels.”
