+
+
+<p>Programming is becoming increasingly important to scientific activity.  As its
+importance grows, the need for better software tools becomes more and more
+central to scientific practice.  However, many fields of science rely on
+badly written, poorly documented, and insufficiently tested codebases.  
+Moreover, scientific software packages often implement only the approaches
+and algorithms needed or promoted by the specific lab where the software
+was written.</p>
+
+<p>In this talk, I will illustrate this situation by discussing some of the
+weaknesses of the software ecosystem for neuroimaging analysis circa 2004.
+I will then describe how several of my colleagues and I are attempting
+to rectify this situation with a project called Neuroimaging in Python
+(http://nipy.org).  Specifically, I will discuss the approach we've taken
+(e.g., using Python) and the lessons we've learned.
