Now, would you be willing to publish the raw data? What is the software that was used to do the post processing? This really makes the case for reproducible research.. http://www.reproducibility.org/wiki/Main_Page http://rr.epfl.ch/17/ One of my research areas has been high performance computing, and high-speed data transfer, so if it's 'just' a matter of how to make a couple gigabytes of data public, please let me know, I'll find someplace to put it.

Any good scientist would want to know the details of post-scan culinary post-processing of the subject and the hedonic results of degustation of the subject when studying a population of salmon, even with N=1. I would be very appreciative if you would make this information publicly available. Thanks! <em>I actually have a post ready to go that answers important questions such as these - I am just waiting for the manuscript to get accepted before I upload it to the weblog. People do seem to be genuinely interested in why we would scan a fish in the first place and whether or not we ate the fish for dinner. All these questions, and more, will be answered in time! ~ Craig</em> I am concerned about the omission of important information from your poster entitled “Neural correlates of interspecies perspective taking in the post-mortem Atlantic Salmon: An argument for multiple comparisons correction”.
