Hi experts,
We are presently involved in a project for analyzing MRI data of 1-3 year old children using FreeSurfer. We cannot find a correct infant atlas. From online search, I know that an infant atlas is being developed which will be integrated into FreeSurfer in the future. （link https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4332305/ [https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/corehtml/pmc/pmcgifs/pmc-logo-share.png]https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4332305/

Can I know when this will be available? If not soon, is there any other methods for us to generate an infant(kid) atlas?
Also I know there are infant atlas from UNC(http://www.med.unc.edu/bric/ideagroup/free-softwares/unc-infant-0-1-2-atlase...), how can I use this atlas in Freesurfer?
