We can use all the normal markdown features here, like:

  • Bullet lists
  • Bold text
  • Italic text
  • Inline code

Just a code block, nothing gets executed…

… but there is some fancy highlighting

from pathlib import Path

home_path = Path.home()
if home_path.exists():
  data_path = home_path / "data"
else:
  pass
  # raise some error maybe?

A code block that’s actually executed at render-time

Code 
from pathlib import Path

print("Hello world")
Hello world

You can execute code without showing that you have by using #|echo: false

Hello world

A slide imported from outside the qmd

This will become an example about how to use a common slide deck for the group.

An example image

Include an image:

Use a variable several times

Variables defined in the metadata is re-useable anywhere

Citing references

  • To cite references, include them in the references.bib BibTeX file and then use the syntax [@citekey] to cite them.
  • For example, our preprint of the Blackcap brain atlas (Sirmpilatze et al. 2025).
  • You can preview the reference entry by hovering over the citation, cool!

References

This is how you create a references section, i.e. a bibliography.
