Single-Sole Source Determination

Market research has revealed that Neurosimplicity is the only software able to deformably register, visualize, and quantify imaging data from different sources (microCT, confocal, two-photon, MRI, etc.) in the same 3D space. In addition, it is secure according to NIH security policies. This software is required for current and future needs of the Viral Immunology and Intravital Imaging Section.

Background/Description of Requirement

The National Institutes of Health is the nation’s leading medical research agency and the primary Federal agency whose mission is to seek fundamental knowledge about the nature and behavior of living systems and the application of that knowledge to enhance human health, lengthen life, and reduce illness and disability. The Viral Immunology and Intravital Imaging Section within NINDS is a laboratory that studies immune responses that develop in the brain and spinal cord in response to infections, injuries, tumors, autoimmunity, and neurodegeneration. The Neurosimplicity software will be used by the McGavern lab in mission critical experiments.
