Day 1: Introduction to FreeSurfer Laptops will be provided to the first 12 pairs of registrants, which will have !FreeSurfer and data already installed. Attendees will work in pairs (sharing a laptop). For the additional 10 pairs of registrants, you must bring your own laptop, and you must install !FreeSurfer and tutorial data on it and test it ahead of time. There will be time at the end of Day 1 to learn how to install !FreeSurfer but please keep in mind that there might not be enough time to resolve any specific technical issues that may arise.

The proximity of this accommodation was found to be a major benefit for other NMR Center course attendees. The facility was recently renovated and guests can use the health club and pool. The Inn has free wireless internet access. To reserve a room at the Constitution Inn, call (617) 241-8400, or visit them on the web at [[http://www.constitutioninn.org|www.constitutioninn.org]].
##A block of rooms are reserved at $99/night. To request this block, ask for the FreeSurfer block.
