International Conference on Functional Mapping of the Human Brain

这笔拨款将用于支持人类大脑测绘组织（OHBM）的年度会议。OHBM的使命是促进脑结构和功能测绘领域的发展。特别是，OHBM强调对人脑功能组织的非侵入性、基于图像的研究。OHBM的主要活动是组织一次年度国际会议。对于在美国境内举行的会议，这笔资金将用于100名学生的助学金。对于国际会场，资金将用于支付邀请美国演讲者的费用。这些会议与人脑计划相关，因为会议的演讲内容与人脑的功能和结构有关，六分之一的科学计划致力于最新的图像采集方法，整个教育计划专门用于研究大脑的方法，重点是图像分析和神经信息学的其他方面。这项研究的部分资金来自美国国家科学基金会参与的“人类大脑计划”，该计划是由国会授权的联邦跨部门研究计划，是“大脑十年”计划的一部分。

This grant will be used to support the annual meeting of the Organization for Human Brain Mapping (OHBM). The mission of the OHBM is to promote the field of structural and functional brain mapping. In particular, OHBM emphasizes non-invasive, image-based investigation of the functional organization of the human brain. The principal activity of the OHBM is to organize an annual, international meeting. For meetings inside the US, funding will be used for 100 student stipends. For international venues, funding will be used to pay the cost of invited US speakers.The meetings are relevant to the Human Brain Project in that the presentations relate to the function and structure of the human brain, one-sixth of the scientific program is devoted to the latest methods for image acquisition, and the entire educational program is devoted exclusively to the methods used to study the brain, with a strong emphasis of image analysis and other aspects of nueroinformatics.This research is funded in part by the National Science Foundation through its participation in the Human Brain Project, which is a Federal interagency research initiative, mandated by Congress as part of the "Decade of the Brain".
