Welcome to the Neuroimaging tools for Python project!

Aim

The aim of NIPY is to produce a platform-independent Python environment for the analysis of brain imaging data using an open development model. Specifically, we aim to:

  1. Provide an open source, mixed language scientific programming environment suitable for rapid development.
  2. Create sofware components in this environment to make it easy to develop tools for MRI, EEG, PET and other modalities.
  3. Create and maintain a wide base of developers to contribute to this platform.
  4. To maintain and develop this framework as a single, easily installable bundle.

History

The NIPY project was originally called BrainPy and announced its birth in a BrainPy Human Brain Mapping abstract in 2005. The core of NIPY is a refactored version of BrainStat -- Jonathan Taylor's extended port of Keith Worsley's fmristat matlab program to Python.
