The Image Processing and Segmentation project is developing novel, well-validated approaches to brain image segmentation, structure analysis, and combined volume and surface registration.

The Deformation Morphometry and Registration project is focused on creating a powerful approach to detect and analyze longitudinal changes in the living brain.

The Atlasing project deals with the general problem of creating statistical maps of data from populations of subjects.

The scope of the Informatics Project is divided into three components: data management, processing workflow and visualization.

Rapid advancements in imaging technology have provided researchers with the ability to produce very high-resolution, time-varying, multi-dimensional data sets of the human brain. The complexity of the new data, however, requires immense computing and storage capabilities. Institutions and scientists worldwide rely on the LONI Resource's computing resources to conduct research.

The laboratory uses a fault-tolerant storage area network (SAN) to accommodate current and projected storage requirements.

The LONI Image Data Archive was constructed to provide a simple, yet effective means of securely storing, searching and organizing neuroimaging data on the LONI storage network.

The LONI Resource provides regular seminars, workshops and courses on advanced information technology. Building upon a mature and established Training Program in Neuroimaging, we have designed our workshops and courses to include training on the multidimensional modeling that is the focus of this Resource.

The Scientific Visualization Core produces sophisticated scientific images and animations that illustrate the results of the algorithmic and analytic strategies employed in the core research areas and by our collaborators.
