**PAGE UNDER DEVELOPMENT**
This page is a resource for FUNC users.
Anyone new to the lab and using FUNC NEEDS to read the first section to have adequate working knowledge of the system.
Getting Started
Introduction
The UCLA FUNC (FUnctional Neuroimaging Core) is a Computing Cluster dedicated to analysis and storage of neuroimaging data. FUNC is located on the 2nd floor of Franz Hall behind the undergrad computing lounge. The key for FUNC is numbered 8337, you can get one from the main office.
Getting an Account
To get an account you should contact Mark Strohm making sure you include your affiliation and the lab/group you are in, and cc-ing your mentor/supervisor. (Note that accounts on the FUNC are currently restricted to UCLA personnel and collaborators.)

Helpful Resources
Working in a UNIX Environment
Never heard of a command line before? Vaguely know what "permissions" are and have no idea how to navigate a filesystem? This page is meant to take the scare out of the words "command line" so you can actually use Hoffman2, because no matter how many GUIs there are, command line is king.
