Mbirn:XNAT deployment

XNAT Introduction and Training Breakout Group

mBIRN Spring Meeting in Sedona

In this breakout group, attendees will learn how to use, deploy, and customize the XNAT neuroimaging data
management system. By the end of the meeting, each attendee will have an XNAT system running on his own
machine that is capable of capturing and sharing the data collected in his lab.

All BIRN sites are invited to participate. Please contact Dan Marcus (dmarcus@wustl.edu) if you plan to attend or have any questions.
