Description
The aim of the Human Brain Project (HBP) is to accelerate our understanding of the human brain by integrating global neuroscience knowledge and data into supercomputer-based models and simulations. This will be achieved, in part, by engaging the European and global research communities using six collaborative ICT platforms: Neuroinformatics, Brain Simulation, High Performance Computing, Medical Informatics, High Performance Computing, Neuromorphic Computing and Neurorobotics.
This session is intended for
· NeuroInformatics communities interested in collaborations, in particular with HBP
· NGIs cloud providers interested in how HBP can benefit from cloud provisioning for its big data integration needs and willing to support HBP
· Technology providers interested in offering solutions and participating to tests
· Members of the Federated Data Virtual Team
In this talk I will present new approaches for computer-aided diagnosis of neurodegenerative disease, based on large-scale quantitative modelling of the ageing brain. The main idea is to construct “growth” curves that characterise the distribution of MRI-derived markers in a healthy population as a function of age. These growth curves can then serve as reference charts to which patient data...
"Science Gateways" are web-based enterprise information systems that facilitate access to information infrastructures in the form of customized and community-specific interfaces to data collections, computational tools, and collaborative services. In other words, Science Gateways integrate and customize infrastructure services into one system to provide workflow automation, to increase...
