Scientific and Statistical Computing Core

SSCC is the Scientific and Statistical Computing Core of the NIMH Intramural Research Program. The primary function of this core is to support functional neuroimaging research at the NIH. This includes development of new data analysis techniques, their implementation in the AFNI software, advising researchers on the analysis methods, and instructing them in the use of software tools.

 

Robert W. Cox

   ​RWCThe Core leader is Robert W Cox. He started this whole mess in Jan 2001,
   at the behest of Robert Desimone, Scientific Director of the NIMH.

Daniel Glen

  Daniel Glen started in November 2004 as a Computer Engineer.
  He has developed a new diffusion tensor imaging model that allows for noise
  in diffusion weighted images using a non-linear solution, a method for computing
  anisotropic smoothing of images and a fast and robust method for structural
  equation modeling.

John Lee

 John studied olfactory behavior using electrophysiology and calcium imaging in the Drosophila model organism for his graduate studies. Following this, he joined the Data Science and Sharing Team (DSST) at NIMH. He processed and published datasets collected by scientists working there. Additionally he helped to aggregate publicly shared datasets for usage by on site scientists and ran various data processing pipelines on the NIH cluster. On the AFNI team, he is working towards improving AFNI's integration with other community tools and improving its ease of use for cloud computing.
