We are very pleased to announce that the new AFNI Message Board framework is up! Please join us at:
https://discuss.afni.nimh.nih.gov
Existing user accounts have been migrated, so returning users can login by requesting a password reset. New users can create accounts, as well, through a standard account creation process. Please note that these setup emails might initially go to spam folders (esp. for NIH users!), so please check those locations in the beginning.
The current Message Board discussion threads have been migrated to the new framework. The current Message Board will remain visible, but read-only, for a little while.
Re. 3dNetCorr and blurring:
I would say that you should not blur the data during processing. Let 3dNetCorr do the averaging of time series within each ROI for you (which it does internally). If you blur the data prior to that, you will likely artificially boost the correlations among neighboring ROIs, because they now share time series information.
