A new NeuroView paper in Neuron describes the International Brain Initiative, IBI, a consortium of big brain projects across the world who aim to coordinate efforts across existing and emerging national and regional brain initiatives. IBI was established in recognition of the fact that no single initiative will be able to tackle the challenge to better understand the brain.

The latest issue of the journal NeuroImage is a special issue on reproducibility in MRI, led by Russell A.Poldrack, Kirstie Whitake and David Kennedy.
