Preparation

1) A short summary of the original and renewal DBPs (this will also be used in the DBP sig breakout session). Basically title and one paragraph description.

2) A few key journal publications that have emerged directly from each center (say the top 5 per center). These should not be presented in a center-specific context but just to show the volume and quality of scientific production. You should be able to get these directly from your progress reports.

3) Some statistics of publications: total number in the last year or cumulative. Again, these should be presented in aggregate rather than by center. 198 cumulative. http://www.na-mic.org/pages/Special:Publications?collection=12

4) A list of tools produced by the center with one or two highlights where you have high volume download or many journal citations.

5) List of conferences/meetings where people in your center have explicitly advertised or demoed the NCBC’s activities.

• MICCAI, RSNA, Human Brain Mapping, IGT Workshops at NIH

6) Newsletters, conferences, and other activities promoted by the centers.
