  • Abstract
    The NRV (Neuroinformatics Research in Vision) project is the first project in Japan started in 1999 under the Strategic Promotion System for Brain Science of the Special Coordination Funds for Promoting Science and Technology (SCF) at the Science and Technology Agency (now under the MEXT: Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology), aimed at building the foundation of neuroinformatics research. Because of the wealth of data on the visual system, the NRV project will use vision research to promote experimental, theoretical and technical research in neuroinformatics.
