automated tractography into FreeSurfer (Yendiki et al., 2011), Lilla Zöllei in collaboration with Gheorghe Postelnicu developed a combined volume and surface registration that aligns cortical folding patterns as well as subcortical and ventricular structures (Postelnicu et al., 2009a; Zöllei et al., 2010), and more recently has been working on extending our tools to build segmentations and surface models of newborns; Rudolph Pienaar has worked on web-based frontends for running FreeSurfer processes and also created tools for analyzing curvature properties of surface models with a focus on development (Pienaar et al., 2008); Eric Halgren, David Salat and Jean Augustinack have contributed critical neuroscientific and neuroanatomical expertise; Arthur Liu was Anders’ first graduate student and the unfortunate person tasked with doing surface reconstructions before the process was automated, and carried out important early work developing inverse solutions and comparing EEG and MEG (Liu et al., 2002); Florent Ségonne developed the hybrid watershed skull stripping algorithm still in use in FreeSurfer (Ségonne et al., 2004), and also many volumetric and surface-based algorithms for topology correction, and evolving fronts under topological control (Ségonne et al., 2003,2005a,2005b,2007); Jon Polimeni has pushed forward the use of the surface models for laminar modeling; Oliver Hinds developed tools
