1. Neuroimage Analysis Center
Ron Kikinis, PI
SPL

2. Big Themes
Algorithmic Research
Biologic Variability

3. Algorithmic Research Multidimensional Signal Processing
Statistical Methods
Informatics
Software Engineering

4. Biologic Variability In populations In subjects over time
shape of structures
Connectivity between structures
In subjects over time
Physiologic: aging
Pathologic: disease progress

5. Current Cycle: 2003-2008 White Matter Architecture from DT-MRI
Clinical Computational Anatomy
Developmental Neuroinformatics
fMRI Informatics
Visualization
BIRN Projects

6. Programmatic Changes BIRN split into mBIRN, fBIRN and Engineering
Visualization merges into Engineering and Anatomy
Developmental Neuroinformatics: Simon Warfield moves to Children’s
Anatomy: F. Talos replaces P. Ratiu

7. Competitive Renewal: Atlases
WM Architecture from DT-MRI
Functional MRI Informatics
Clinical Computational Anatomy
Time Series Analysis
Engineering
