the MCI review module (i.e. you may now have fewer allocated abstracts than
last time you logged in). The idea is that Rodney and Sten should look at the
abstracts of the topics that do not come within the scope of a certain
workshop, i.e. General Neuroinformatics, Clinical Neuroinformatics and
Sustainability.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Pontus, can you clearly link the workshop topics to the topic categories
listed? When I log in I receive 6 categories and that is way too many...<br>
Also, who handles the general neuroinformatics (#1) and computational
neuroscience (#2) categories?There is no way that I can score 72 abstracts
(#1+#2+#6) before the end of the week, which would be the case if I was
required to also score those general categories.<br>

attract scientists from a large number of countries, but naturally INCF member
states dominate. Regarding topics, it is clear that the people of some
categories have embraced the neuroinformatics concept more than others. This
places us in a situation where the leaders of Workshop 1 (Erik and Anders) will
have a lot of abstracts to review, whereas other workshop leaders will have
considerably less. So, Erik and Anders, if you come across abstracts that you
think borders to another topic you may consider changing its topic. Of course
it goes for all of you that if you think an abstract is in the wrong topic
group, then just change its topic.<u1:p></u1:p></span></font><font color=black><span
