== Summary ==
== Summary ==
The NeuroFedora SIG's goal is to provide neuroscience researchers (and enthusiasts!) a strong, easy to use, ready-made FOSS platform for their work.  The first step towards this objective is to package as many of the tools that neuroscientists use to make them available in Fedora.

Providing an avenue for neuroscience researchers (and enthusiasts!) to see the capabilities and usefulness of the Fedora infrastructure and bring on new users, supporters and contributors to the community.  Continue to build a reputation as the go-to platform for science researchers seeking out of the box solutions, along with the ability to add on to the base infrastructure as needed through Fedora/upstream development tools.

Fedora, with its mission to promote FOSS, is in a unique position to support Open Science. The Comp-Neuro Spin/lab continues the work done by the Scientific and Astronomy labs to make software easier to use for computational neuroscience enthusiasts.
By doing so, Fedora increases its participation in Open Science---gaining more users, and contributors, and taking another step towards being the default operating system for research.
