Re: [Freesurfer] ECC or non-ECC Memory?
by Sotiris Michos 19 Oct '19

19 Oct '19

External Email - Use Caution Dear Matt, Memtest 86+ and similar tools can test the DRAM module only for hard errors (hardware defects). Are you suggesting that the soft errors (the common spontaneous flipping of a bit state) that happen in all memories do not have a considerable effect in Freesurfer’s results? Best Regards, Sotiris

by Linnman, Clas,Ph.D. 18 Oct '19

18 Oct '19

Hi everyone, My lab is looking for a post-doc. Please spread the below advertisement far and wide With my best regards Clas Linnman The Spaulding Neuroimaging Laboratory (PI Clas Linnman, assistant professor, Harvard Medical School), working closely with the Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging, uses simultaneous PET-MRI with a focus on neuroinflammation and opioid receptors in humans and in animal models of chronic pain. The current position is part of a research project funded by the NIH to determine if intensive aerobic exercise may reduce inflammation, strengthen endogenous pain capacity, and improve rehabilitation outcomes in patients with spinal cord injury. Key Responsibilities Conduct neuroimaging research with emphasis on brain structure, network reorganization, opioid receptor expression and neuroinflammation after spinal cord injury. Evaluate the effects of intensive whole-body aerobic exercise in patients with sub-acute spinal cord injury with regards to pain inhibition capacity, spinal cord atrophy, brain function, opioid and neuroinflammation. Apply and develop MR and PET acquisition methods for longitudinal analyses Apply and develop research methodologies for integrating PET and MR data in human and animal models. Lead and assist in the writing of academic manuscripts Lead and assist in dissemination of research findings through presentations at conferences and for patient and public engagement activities. Initiate and assist grant applications for further career development Assist in mentoring of research assistants Qualifications Qualifications and Experience Education/Degree Required - A PhD degree in a field encompassing neuroscience and neuroimaging. Experience Preferred Research experience in neuroscience and neuroimaging; preferably in the fields of pain, SCI and MR data analysis, as demonstrated by at least one first-author publication for which MRI or PET methodology has been used. Candidates are expected to have considerable experience in the analysis of neuroimaging data, basic programming skills in Python or Matlab, and a solid understanding of inferential statistics. Excellent organizational, oral, and written communication skills Strong interpersonal skills and comfort interacting with research participants with spinal cord injuries English language fluency Excellent ability to work independently Familiarity with neuroimaging tools like Freesurfer, SPM, FSL Excellent attention to detail Apply online at https://partners.taleo.net/careersection/srn/jobdetail.ftl?job=3108990&tz=G…

Group effect Contrast for 6 groups
by cody samth 18 Oct '19

18 Oct '19

External Email - Use Caution Hi, I'm designing an analysis that will have 6 groups (two factors/three levels). I was wondering if I could get some input regarding my contrast for the group effect. Based on the group effect contrast under the FSGD examples for 3 groups I've written a five line contrast file that compares group 1 against the other 5 groups. 1-1 0 0 0 0 1 0 -1 0 0 0 1 0 0 -1 0 0 1 0 0 0 -1 0 1 0 0 0 0 -1 Which from my understanding should cover the rest of the contrasts such as 2v5 3v6 and etc. Is my understanding of this correct?

Mri_mask producing only zeros
by Sims, Sara A (Campus) 18 Oct '19

18 Oct '19

External Email - Use Caution Freesurfers, I am trying to use mri_mask using surface overlays. I made a label into a volume and then into a surface with 1s inside the label and 0s outside the label. I want to make a connectivity map surface overlay with values only within my label overlay. However when I run it, it creates a surface overlay with only zeros. There is definitely values within the label surface overlay (I triple checked). Code I used: Mri_mask original_surface_overlay label_mask new_masked_output It doesn’t output any errors. Sara A. Sims

-multistrip exited with errors troubleshooting
by Mohn, Johannes 18 Oct '19

18 Oct '19

External Email - Use Caution Hi all, I'm trying -multistrip to improve skull stripping for subjects where incomplete skull strip lead to inaccurate pial surfaces. The command I'm running is: recon-all -multistrip -clean-bm -s <subjID> -no-isrunning However, multistrip fails. It exits with errors and no new brainmask.mgz files are created. This is independent of the subject. It fails for all. I attached the recon-all.log for one exemplary subject. In contrast, using -gcut (recon-all -skullstrip -clean-bm -gcut -s <subjID>) works but does not remove the problematic skull fragments in most cases. Independent of whether -multistrip or -gcut are better suited to improve the skull stripping, I would like to understand why -multistrip fails in my case and what can be done to make it work. Best, JJ
