Special interest group that brings together program officers who have a shared interest in applying modeling and analysis methods to biomedical systems. The meetings are formatted to facilitate an open discussion of what is currently being supported, and for planning future directions in these areas. At each meeting, time is allotted to hear focused presentations from one or two participants to discuss issues relating to modeling and analysis across the government agencies. Discussions also occur online, and participants are informed of talks, conferences and other activities of interest to the group. IMAG recognized that the modeling community is on the forefront of thinking across the biological continuum, rather than just focusing at one scale or level of resolution. In addition IMAG identified a strong desire among modelers to form multi-disciplinary partnerships across varied research communities. Overall Intent of IMAG through the MSM Consortium is: * To develop new methodologies that span across biological scales * To develop multiscale methodologies applicable to biomedical, biological and behavioral research * To develop methodologies within the local multidisciplinary team and within the larger Framework environment * To further promote multiscale modeling through model sharing This wiki contains information relevant to the IMAG (Interagency Modeling and Analysis Group) and the MSM (Multi-scale Modeling Consortium).

http://users.loni.ucla.edu/~shattuck/brainsuite/
Suite of image analysis tools designed to process magnetic resonance images (MRI) of the human head. BrainSuite provides an automatic sequence to extract genus-zero cortical surface mesh models from the MRI. It also provides a set of viewing tools for exploring image and surface data. The latest release includes graphical user interface and command line versions of the tools. BrainSuite was specifically designed to guide its users through the process of cortical surface extraction. NITRC has written the software to require minimal user interaction and with the goal of completing the entire process of extracting a topologically spherical cortical surface from a raw MR volume within several minutes on a modern workstation. The individual components of BrainSuite may also be used for soft tissue, skull and scalp segmentation and for surface analysis and visualization. BrainSuite was written in Microsoft Visual C using the Microsoft Foundation Classes for its graphical user interface and the OpenGL library for rendering. BrainSuite runs under the Windows 2000 and Windows XP Professional operating systems. BrainSuite features include: * Sophisticated visualization tools, such as MRI visualization in 3 orthogonal views (either separately or in 3D view), and overlayed surface visualization of cortex, skull, and scalp * Cortical surface extraction, using a multi-stage user friendly approach. * Tools including brain surface extraction, bias field correction, voxel classification, cerebellum removal, and surface generation * Topological correction of cortical surfaces, which uses a graph-based approach to remove topological defects (handles and holes) and ensure a tessellation with spherical topology * Parameterization of generated cortical surfaces, minimizing a harmonic energy functional in the p-norm * Skull and scalp surface extraction
