Fwd: Computational neuroscience data in the Wolfram Knowledgebase

by Philip Quinlan

Sorry for cross posting but this looks quite a useful resource? Philip. > Begin forwarded message: > > From: Keiko Hirayama <keiko.hirayama(a)wolfram.com> > Subject: Computational neuroscience data in the Wolfram Knowledgebase > Date: 15 November 2017 at 17:14:06 GMT > To: philip.quinlan(a)york.ac.uk > > Hello, > Computational neuroscience is a rapidly growing area of study, from neuronal network analysis to the construction of the comprehensive cognitive map of the human brain. As the next phase of Wolfram Research's endeavor to make biology computable, we have recently released a collection of computable neuroscience-related data. > Our curated collection has information about the human brain's anatomy as well as its network connectivity, neuronal characteristics and mapped cognitive function. Along with programmatic access to these resources, the Wolfram Language provides the tools necessary to analyze and visualize such information. Please see my interactive notebook for details on our neuroscience data <http://url.wolfram.com/2EmhiWI8/>. > It is our ongoing effort to expand our Wolfram Knowledgebase in the computational neuroscience areas to offer a better and broader perspective on the structure and function of the nervous system. We would be interested to hear what you think and what additional topics or functionality could be useful for your research. > I would greatly appreciate your feedback. > Sincerely, > > Keiko Hirayama > Wolfram Research, Inc. • 100 Trade Center Dr. • Champaign, IL 61820 • USA > Privacy Policy <http://www.wolfram.com/legal/privacy/wolfram-research.html> • Update your email <http://www.wolfram.com/emailchange/?email=philip.quinlan@york.ac.uk> • Remove yourself from these mailings <http://www.wolfram.com/unsubscribe/?email=philip.quinlan%40york.ac.uk&maili…>

Updates this week

by Antony Morland

Dear All, A few things this week: 1. The GE scanner will be down for maintenance of the gradient cooling system on Wednesday and Thursday. 2. There will be a seminar this week explaining the projects we have planned for this academic cycle. This will include details of software and equipment upgrades and updates to services and training. 3. We will be closing for three days - 13/12-15/12 - for server upgrades. 4. There will be no operator cover for the week commencing 18/12. The scanners may be booked if you have an operator, however. Tip of the week: Sometimes you may need to change file permissions to gain access to them. Here is some useful information on how to do it. You will need to log on to the wiki to get to the link. https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/docs/ITPages/FilePermissions?highlight=%28permi… -- Antony Morland, PhD.

Update

by Antony Morland

Dear All, This week we have a GE planned maintenance on Thursday. We are also cooling down the MEG scanner to allow new electronics to be installed later this year. This will mean that (a) there may be some disruption because of the movement of equipment and liquid gases and (b) staff time for support may be limited this week because of the nature and extent of the work involved in cooling MEG. Tip of the week: Send all support requests to support(a)ynic.york.ac.uk -- Antony Morland, PhD. Director, York Neuroimaging Centre Department of Psychology, University of York, York YO10 5DD, UK.

Dear All, This week, Andre will be giving a seminar 'Managing your project at YNiC'. As usual the seminar will start at 4pm and will be followed by refreshments. We have been having some issues with the GE scanner recently, but are monitoring the situation. Next week we will be servicing the MEG scanner by bringing it down to operating temperature. The centre will be busy with extra staff present and equipment being used throughout the week. Best wishes Tony Tip: type *man* followed by a function you would like to know how to use e.g. man ls man is the abbreviated form of manual -- Antony Morland, PhD.
