This working group provides a forum for presentation and discussion of
completed, ongoing, or planned statistical analyses of neurological data.
Such data include, for example, in vivo human brain images (anatomic,
functional and spectroscopic magnetic resonance imaging), gene expression
studies of human and non-human animal brain tissue (brightfield and
immunofluorescence microscopy, DNA microarrays, laser micro-dissection),
in vivo micro-dialysis, clinical trials data for a variety of neurologic
diseases, and genetic data from family studies. Non-statistical
presentations of neurological, psychiatric and technological background
material will also be included. Through this seminar, statisticians will
gain exposure to the statistical issues that arise in the broad field of
neurology and brain imaging psychiatry and to the diverse ongoing research
in this area throughout Harvard and the world. A main goal of the seminar
is to stimulate statistical interest in neuroscience and neurology and to
develop strategies for collaboration within these fields.
