The Dean of Faculty Department of Behavioral Sciences & Leadership (DFBL) at the US Air Force Academy seeks to acquire a digital neuroimaging data analysis training curriculum library.

Specifically, the curriculum must be:

(1) readily deployed on demand by DFBL faculty --i.e., we must have full control and access to the material;

(2) precise and highly detailed to allow for self-guided instruction without learner confusion or frustration;

(3) self-contained, such that it must includesupplementary instruction explaining programming languages, background science, etc. required to

engage with the neuroimaging data analysis curriculum fully; and

(4) framed within and applied to a

very specific scientific framework and research program --i.e., the mechanistic neurosociology of

cognitive warfare/operations in the information environment/malign foreign influence.

Specific general activities are as follows:

1. Provide training material for accessing, analyzing, interpreting, and applying, functional NIRS,

functional MRI, and diffusion tensor imaging data sets to research questions.

2. Provide training material covering the anatomy and physiology of relevant neurosociological

entities and activities.

3. Provide examples and case studies materials for illustrating use scenarios grounded in the

mechanistic social sciences.

4. Provide practice problems and exercise materials for assessing learning and mastery. Include

relevant data sets, problem solutions, and explanations. Both must be grounded in the mechanistic

social sciences.

5. Provide training material for at least one neuroimaging software package, such as FSL, AFNI, SPM,

or FreeSurfer.

6. Provide training material for at least one programming language, such as Python, MATLAB, or R.

7. Provide training material for background knowledge in mathematics, computer science, and

biological sciences.
