NA-MIC was funded in September of 2004 after submission of an application in response to an RFA issued by NIH as part of the roadmap initiative. The RFA specified that each of the successful centers should be organized into a variety of cores and even specified the percentage distribution of the budget between the cores. NA-MIC is organized in compliance with those requirements. The Algorithm Core develops and implements medical image computing algorithms using the NA-MIC Kit. The engineering core develops and maintains the NA-MIC Kit, a software platform designed to enable research. The DBP's use the tools provided by the algorithm and engineering cores to develop software solutions that further their biomedical research. The training and dissemination cores work on both internal and external outreach. The service core supports the virtualized IT infrastructure that enables all these activities in distributed environment. The leadership core is responsible for the overall direction of the alliance. The PI works in close consultation with all the participants in the NA-MIC effort.
