           Welcome to the Young and the Tenureless, a comic strip for professors and academics. 

ADNI: The ADNI study has three phases: ADNI1, ADNI GO and ADNI2. New participants were recruited across North America during each phase of the study and agreed to complete a variety of imaging and clinical assessments. Participants are followed and reassessed over time to track the pathology of the disease as it progresses. Results are then shared by ADNI through USC’s Laboratory of Neuro Imaging’s  Image Data Archive (IDA) . LONI: The LONI Image Data Archive  (IDA) provides an integrated environment for safely archiving, querying, visualizing and  sharing neuroimaging data. The archive facilitates the de-identification and pooling of data from multiple institutions,  protecting data from unauthorized access while providing the ability to share data among collaborative investigators.  The archive provides flexibility in establishing project metadata, accommodating one or more research groups, species,  sites and other attributes. Archiving data is simple, s...
