Summary of Discussion

A general consensus emerged that the regreat was a useful thing to to, and that we should do it again next year.

Some projects were identified as potential areas for collaboration among the P41s, including:

  • Sandy Wells, Clare Poynton, Mark Jenkinson: Dewarping and Registering EPI MRI
  • A response to an upcoming RFA for BIRN collaborative activity
  • some work towards standardizing DTI protocols across sites
  • multimodality scanning and analysis of neurosurgery patients
    • high quality structural scans
    • MEG
    • EEG
  • obtaining additional modalities / scans of the SPL atlas subject
  • obtaining high field ex-vivo scans of a whole brain for Florin's atlas work
  • possibly doing optical sensing in the OR (perfusion related)




A discussion ensued about the possibility of "institutionalizing" some joint activity by creating a fellowship or two to fund collaboration across the SPL and the Martinos Center. Bruce Rosen and Ron Kikinis agreed to investigate possible funding for these from hospital or Partners sources.
