Task Force Topics and Rosters

Task Force 1

Task Force 1 met in Washington, D.C. on January 30 and 31, 1990. The group examined the issues related to establishing a complex of automated resources for neuroscience research from the perspective of those working in neurophysiology, neuroanatomy, and other fields in which the hierarchical character of neural systems must be considered.

Task Force 2

Task Force 2 met in Washington, D.C. on February 1 and 2, 1990. The group examined the relevant issues in relation to mapping the presence of neurotransmitters, receptors, or changes in glucose metabolism, blood flow, or ion concentration in specific regions of the brain (i.e., autoradiographic and densitometric data).

Task Force 3

Task Force 3 met in Irvine, California, on March 5 and 6, 1990. The group examined the issues from the perspective of those involved in human brain imaging, including PET scanning, MRI visualization, CT scanning, and the combination or overlaying of these images.
