Dataset including a T1 weighted anatomical image as well as two 10-minute resting state scans acquired during the same session from 25 psychiatrically screened healthy adults (community sample) ranging in age from 18 to 65 years old, with age, sex, education level, and ethnicity provided. Some subjects also returned several weeks after the first scan for a second scanning session. The number of days between scan sessions, for subjects that had two sessions, is indicated in the demographics spreadsheet. The study scanning protocol included: # 13 sec localizer # 4 minute 38 second T1 weighted anatomical # Subject given instructions for resting state scan #1 # 10 minute 4 second resting state scan #1 # Subject given instructions for resting state scan #2 # 10 minute 4 second resting state scan #2 Scanning was performed on one of three different 3T Siemens TIM TRIOs at the Human Neuroimaging Lab at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas. All scans were acquired using the standard Siemen''s TIM 12-channel head matrix. The resting state scans were acquired with a custom sequence that is a slight modification to the standard Siemen''s EPI sequence that supports real-time fMRI. Images were acquired slightly oblique to minimize dephasing in the orbito-frontal cortex. Detailed scanning parameters are included in separate .pdf files.

DTI white matter atlases with different data sources and different image processing. These include single-subject, group-averaged, B0 correction, processed atlases (White Matter Parcellation Map, Tract-probability maps, Conceptual difference between the WMPM and tract-probability maps), and linear or non-linear transformation for automated white matter segmentation. # Adam single-subject white matter atlas (old version): These are electronic versions of atlases published in Wakana et al, Radiology, 230, 77-87 (2004) and MRI Atlas of Human White Matter, Elsevier. ## Original Adam Atlas: 256 x 256 x 55 (FOV = 246 x 246 mm / 2.2 mm slices) (The original matrix is 96x96x55 (2.2 mm isotropic) which is zerofilled to 256 x 256 ## Re-sliced Adam Atlas: 246 x 246 x 121 (1 mm isotropic) ## Talairach Adam: 246 x 246 x 121 (1 mm isotropic) # New Eve single-subject white matter atlas: The new version of the single-subject white matter atlas with comprehensive white matter parcellation. ## MNI coordinate: 181 x 217 x 181 (1 mm isotropic) ## Talairach coordinate: 181 x 217 x 181 (1 mm isotropic) # Group-averaged atlases: This atlas was created from their normal DTI database (n = 28). The template was MNI-ICBM-152 and the data from the normal subjects were normalized by affine transformation. Image dimensions are 181x217x181, 1 mm isotropic. There are two types of maps. The first one is the averaged tensor map and the second one is probabilistic maps of 11 white matter tracts reconstructed by FACT. # ICBM Group-averaged atlases: This atlas was created from ICBM database. All templates follow Radiology convention. You may need to flip right and left when you use image registration software that follows the Neurology convention.

http://scienceblogs.com/

From climate change to intelligent design, HIV/AIDS to stem cells, science education to space exploration, science is figuring prominently in our discussions of politics, religion, philosophy, business and the arts. New insights and discoveries in neuroscience, theoretical physics and genetics are revolutionizing our understanding of who are are, where we come from and where we''re heading. Launched in January 2006, ScienceBlogs is a portal to this global dialogue, a digital science salon featuring the leading bloggers from a wide array of scientific disciplines. Today, ScienceBlogs is the largest online community dedicated to science. We believe in providing our bloggers with the freedom to exercise their own editorial and creative instincts. We do not edit their work and we do not tell them what to write about. We have selected our 80+ bloggers based on their originality, insight, talent, and dedication and how we think they would contribute to the discussion at ScienceBlogs. Our role, as we see it, is to create and continue to improve this forum for discussion, and to ensure that the rich dialogue that takes place at ScienceBlogs resonates outside the blogosphere. ScienceBlogs is always interested in bringing new contributors into our community. If you''re interested in blogging with us, please fill out our application, and we''ll be in touch.

http://neurosphere.wordpress.com/

This blog belongs to me, Dave J Hayes PhD, a Neuroscientist at the University of Ottawa''s Institute of Mental Health Research. My research focuses on the neuroscience of motivation and emotion particularly regarding how brains and people respond to aversive and rewarding things in their environment. A neurosphere is a free-floating group of neural stem cells which can multiply, outside of their natural environment, and retain the ability to differentiate into functional brain cells. I don''t work on neurospheres. However, i like the metaphor of a group of people coming together, outside of their natural environment, through their interest in all things neuro which, incidentally, is everything. The sphere of human thought.

http://www.civm.duhs.duke.edu/neuro2012ratatlas/

Multidimensional atlas of the adult Wistar rat brain based on magnetic resonance histology (MRH). The atlas has been carefully aligned with the widely used Paxinos-Watson atlas based on optical sections to allow comparisons between histochemical and immuno-marker data, and the use of the Paxinos-Watson abbreviation set. Our MR atlas attempts to make a seamless connection with the advantageous features of the Paxinos-Watson atlas, and to extend the utility of the data through the unique capabilities of MR histology: a) ability to view the brain in the skull with limited distortion from shrinkage or sectioning; b) isotropic spatial resolution, which permits sectioning along any arbitrary axis without loss of detail; c) three-dimensional (3D) images preserving spatial relationships; and d) widely varied contrast dependent on the unique properties of water protons. 3D diffusion tensor images (DTI) at what we believe to be the highest resolution ever attained in the rat provide unique insight into white matter structures and connectivity. The 3D isotropic data allow registration of multiple data sets into a common reference space to provide average atlases not possible with conventional histology. The resulting multidimensional atlas that combines Paxinos-Watson with multidimensional MRH images from multiple specimens provides a new, comprehensive view of the neuroanatomy of the rat and offers a collaborative platform for future rat brain studies. To access the atlas, click view supplementary materials in CIVMSpace at the bottom of the following webpage.

The Neurocritic is a blog deconstructing the most sensationalistic recent findings in Human Brain Imaging, Cognitive Neuroscience, and Psychopharmacology. Born in West Virginia in 1980, The Neurocritic embarked upon a roadtrip across America at the age of thirteen with his mother. She abandoned him when they reached San Francisco and The Neurocritic descended into a spiral of drug abuse and prostitution. At fifteen, The Neurocritic''s psychiatrist encouraged him to start writing as a form of therapy.
