UC Davis/UC San Diego Human Brain Project

Administrative Core

The primary goals of the Administrative Core are:
  1. Oversight of the overall program;
  2. Facilitation of interactions between the scientists;
  3. Development of a permanence and maintenance plan;
  4. Quality control and dissemination of data and software tools for evaluation by independent investigators.
The Administrative Core will work closely with the members of the individual Projects to define and support software needs specific to each project and coordinate efforts of all the investigators in building the lateral geniculate database. The Administrative Core will utilize the fiber optic network operated by the UC system to develop a high speed, high data capacity federated network system to connect the Projects of this program to one another and to other grantees under the Human Brain Project. It will maintain a centralized data repository (the Neuroscience Information Repository, NIR) and the related software tools developed by the Program on a UNIX based server and, in collaboration with the Center for Image Processing and Integrated Computing (CIPIC), will supervise the storage of high-resolution image information on a multiprocessor, multi-gigabyte Silicon Graphics System Origin (the NeuroImage Repository). The Administrative Core will be responsible for posting information on electronic bulletin boards, for organizing conferences involving the Project members and consultants and for communicating results of the Program to other Human Brain Project grantees.
