Hello List, Here's a research post which hopefully may be of interest to some of you. I should add that the methodological areas of interest to date are primarily segmentation and linear and non-linear registration. Detection and quantification of atrophy is the primary application area. We are physically located next door to the FIL and have been involved in a small recent collaboration on VBM which is a technique we may exploit in the future. If anyone is interested feel free to contact me to discuss the post informally in the first instance - Email is probably easiest.
