Our approach is described in the following wiki pages:

Two 3D Slicer high-level modules have been developped in that regard:

*[http://www.nitrc.org/projects/gambit GAMBIT: Group-wise Automatic Mesh-Based analysis of cortIcal Thickness ]
 
 
Our plan for the project week is to:
 
* Follow-up on ARCTIC: Make it directly available as a 3D Slicer extension on MAC (compilation issues apparently)
 
* Follow-up on GAMBIT: further developmenent, e.g by prodiving new 3D Slicer MRML scenes for quality control
