Understanding brain imaging data – 65,000 shades of gray.

I wanted to explain how structural and functional MRI image format NIFTI works. NIFTI stands for Neuroimaging Informatics Technology Initiative. It is currently a 8 to 128 complete bit, signed or unsigned integer data storage format. The most common implementation of NIFTI is the 16 bit signed integer data storage. The NIFTI images usually have the file extensions… Continue reading Understanding brain imaging data – 65,000 shades of gray.

Writing better code – Parallelize

Today, I am going to share a secret recipe for writing beautiful and efficient code that I learned, while creating simulation models for nanoveda. Nanoveda is using advanced nanoscale simulations to design next generation cancer therapeutics. The secret recipe is: parallelizing code. Most modern PCs have a multicore processor inside it. We seldom code to exploit all… Continue reading Writing better code – Parallelize

Innovation at its core – Making nanoscience accessible.

In this blog post, I will detail two key philosophies that are behind nanoveda. LEAP philosophy: Most important guiding philosophy of nanoveda is very simple: bringing nano-science to masses. The first product we are developing is to address one of the toughest challenges known to human-kind: controlling and curing cancer. Achieving this goal is a step-wise process. My four steps… Continue reading Innovation at its core – Making nanoscience accessible.
