SOURCE:  The  Neuroimaging Informatics Tools and Resources Clearinghouse (NITRC )

Funded by the National Institutes of Health Blueprint for Neuroscience Research in 2006,) NITRC facilitates finding and comparing neuroimaging resources for functional and structural neuroimaging analyses—including popular tools as well as those that once might have been hidden in another researcher’s laboratory or some obscure corner of cyberspace.  NITRC collects and points to standardized information about tools, making the task of finding and comparing them easier than before.
