Task Force Topics and Rosters
Task Force 1
Task Force 1 met in Washington, D.C. on January 30 and 31, 1990. The group examined the issues related to establishing a complex of automated resources for neuroscience research from the perspective of those working in neurophysiology, neuroanatomy, and other fields in which the hierarchical character of neural systems must be considered.
