Neuroscience research spans a wide range of diverse fields -- genetics, brain imaging, neurology, psychology. The Neuroinformatics Research Group (NRG) is focused on facilitating the integration, mining, and sharing of data from across the neuroscientific realm. We have developed a number of open-source and open-access projects along these lines, including our flagship product, the Extensible Neuroimaging Archive Toolkit (XNAT). The NRG is part of the Neuroimaging Laboratory in the Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology at the Washington University School of Medicine. We are also members of the Biomedical Informatics Research Network (BIRN) and receive additional support from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and the McDonnell Center for Higher Brain Function.
