Bug#598667: release-notes: [SQUEEZE] Please add news item about neuroimaging research support
Package: release-notes
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Please consider the attached patch that mentions squeeze's unique
property of comprehensive support for neuroimaging research.
This patch might be extended into a larger section about the
achievements of the Debian Med and Science community. If that happens,
I'd volunteer to coordinate this effort and provide updated patches.
Thanks for your consideration,
Michael

+ &debian; &releasename; &release; is the first GNU/Linux distribution release
+ ever to offer comprehensive support for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) based
+ neuroimaging research. It comes with up-to-date software for structural
+ image analysis (e.g. ants),
+ diffusion imaging and tractography (e.g.
+ mrtrix), stimulus delivery (e.g.
+ psychopy), MRI sequence development (e.g.
+ odin), as well as a number of
+ versatile data processing and analysis suites (e.g.
+ nipype). Moreover, this release
+ has built-in support for all major neuroimaging data formats. See the

+ Debian
+ Med task pages for a comprehensive list of included software
+ and the NeuroDebian webpage
