Council for Training, Science and Infrastructure (CTSI)
The CTSI meets biannually to discuss and recommend INCF's strategic direction in relation to training, science and infrastructure.
The Council for Training, Science and Infrastructure, CTSI, is one of the governing bodies of INCF in its new organizational structure. It consists of scientific representatives from all INCF Nodes. The CTSI has a permanent Training & Education Committee for developing strategy recommendations related to training and education in neuroinformatics, and an Infrastructure Committe for recommending INCF's strategic direction in relation to technical infrastructure and software development. The CTSI informs INCF's choice of Strategic Action Areas, which serve as the focus for INCF's activities, and appoints from itself the review committee for INCF's seed funding program for supporting neuroinformatics collaborative projects.
