Detailed Description

A ready-to-use operating system for Computational Neuroscience! Download, install, get started!

The Comp-Neuro spin includes: modelling tools, analysis and visualisation tools, and general purpose research applications. Along with the easy to use Fedora Workstation/GNOME desktop, it aims to be the go-to Free/Open Source Operating System supporting Open Computational Neuroscience.

Benefit to Fedora

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.
