DESCRIPTION:Lecture (1pm-2pm)\n\nHanchuan Peng (Allen Institute\, Associat
 e Investigator).\n\nHigh-throughput Digital Brain Atlasing for Model Syste
 ms: Worm\, Fly\, Mouse\, and Human\n\nVaa3D software Workshop (2:15pm to 5
 pm)\n\nSign up:  To register\, send an email to ptg25@cam.ac.uk\n\nWhat is
  Vaa3D: Vaa3D is a free and open source cross-platform (Mac\, Linux\, and 
 Windows) tool for visualizing large-scale (gigabytes\, and 64-bit data) 3D
  image stacks and various surface data. It is also a container of powerful
  modules for 3D image analysis (cell segmentation\, neuron tracing\, brain
  registration\, annotation\, quantitative measurement and statistics\, etc
 ) and data management.\n\nWhat is the workshop for: This will be a hands-o
 n tutorial (remember to bring your laptop). The following functions of Vaa
 3D will be demonstrated in an interactive manner.\n\n* Introduction: from 
 2D to 3D visualization.\n● Multidimensional medical and microscopy image
  visualization:  visualize a 3D multicolor image\, visualize a 5D image da
 ta set such as a series of multicolor 3-D images.\n●  Turning the comput
 er mouse into a 3D Virtual Finger: 3D point pin-pointing algorithm (PPA) a
 nd 3D curve drawing algorithm (CDA)\n●  Generate\, quantify\, measure an
 d annotate 3D surface meshes.\n●  Plugin generation: how to write a simp
 le plugin to instantly manipulate a 3D image\n●  Stitching of large-scal
 e images\n●  Visualization of terabyte-scale 3-5D images \n●  Automati
 c neuron reconstruction: semi-automatic and fully automatic neuron reconst
 ruction for regular and large-scale images.
