General Important NotesPrinting/ScanningContact InformationInstalling SoftwareIf you need to install new software (Adobe Illustrator, EndNote, Matlab, etc.), software ISOs can be found on bluearc under "Drivers and Software". If we don't have a valid license number anymore we may need to purchase a new one. XCode and TerminalIf you would like to analyze fMRI data with AFNI, you will need to set up XCode and terminal. The following instructions are for a Mac computer. FreeSurferFreeSurfer is an open source software package that is used in conjunction with other neuroimaging programs to analyze MRI data. Our main use will be the program optseq (for creating optimally randomized stimuli sequences for fMRI) and reconall (for cortical surface reconstruction). To download FreeSurfer, go here: https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/DownloadAndInstall First you'll need to get a FreeSurfer license. Happily, it's free. Click on Registration and go through the instructions. The license will be e-mailed to you. The license file you get is actually a piece of text that you are to copy into a text file and save as '.license' under the $FREESURFER_HOME environment variable. To set that, you next need to download FreeSurfer (from the original link, click on Download). Download the package appropriate for your operating system. GrantsHere's some general information about applying for grants/fellowships. NRSAAt some point you'll likely work on an F31 (pre-doctoral NRSA) or F32 (post-doctoral NRSA). The NIH provides this 1992 style graphic to understand the difference between the two: http://grants.nih.gov/training/FTAwards.htm Below are some resources that might be helpful during the preparation and submission of your NRSA grant. |
