imaging informatics, structural informatics and neuroinformatics The human brain is arguably the most complex and least understood of all organs in the body, yet relatively recent technological advances are rapidly opening up entirely new avenues for understanding its structure and function. Primary among these new technologies are images, not only of structure, but also of function, which provide increasingly detailed views of the thinking brain. These and other technologies have led to an explosion of research results in neuroscience, such that over 15,000 abstracts are presented at the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscienc
