One more: Marshall Xu is presenting our latest updates in mapping brainstem vasculature at poster #1759, where he did some nifty image transformations + VesselBoost segmentation to get our best results yet. Take a look!

“What if installing FSL or FreeSurfer didn’t take hours — or even minutes?”
Come find out how we’ve made neuroimaging tools portable, fast, and accessible for everyone at the Neurodesk workshop at Brainhack 2025.

🔁 Neurodesk helps you re-run old analyses — even years later — in exactly the same environment.
This is the power of portable reproducibility.
Try it out at our Brainhack workshop.

🔍 Includes:
✅ Multi-site, multi-contrast MRI data
✅ Manually corrected segmentations of 5 key tongue muscles
✅ Phenotypic data (age, sex, height, weight, muscle volumes)

This resource is perfect for researchers in imaging, ML, speech, and more!
