A Database of Brains

aarondubrow writes "Researchers recently created OpenfMRI, a web-based, supercomputer-powered tool that makes it easier for researchers to process, share, compare and rapidly analyze fMRI brain scans from many different studies. Applying supercomputing to the fMRI analysis allows researchers to conduct larger studies, test more hypotheses, and accommodate the growing spatial and time resolution of brain scans. The ultimate goal is to collect enough brain data to develop a bottom-up understanding of brain function." http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=A+Database+of+Brains%3A+http%3A%2F%2Fb it.ly%2F178y7wa) http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fscience.slashdot.org%2Fs tory%2F13%2F06%2F14%2F1453257%2Fa-database-of-brains%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dface book) http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/gplus-16.png (http://plus.google.com/share?url=http://science.slashdot.org/story/13/06/14/1453257/a-database-of-brains?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=googleplus)
