History
The origins of the CamBA software repository begin in 1996 at the Institute of Psychiatry, King's College London, London, UK. Professor Ed Bullmore and Professor Mick Brammer wrote a small package of software components to process functional magnetic resonance imaging data, which at that time was an emerging technology. In 1999 Dr John Suckling became involved in the first effort to coordinate and organise the software including options for processing structural MRI images and between-subject statistical inference, based on randomisation methods.
The CamBA initiative began in 2006. Instead of a library of functions, CamBA is better described as a software repository. It is an Eclipse RCP -based application and contains a number of pipelines which are constructed from software modules contributed by a variety of authors using a common ontology.

“As I am, so shall I associate, and so shall I act; Caesar’s history will paint out Caesar.”

“One classic American landscape haunts all of American literature. It is a picture of Eden, perceived at the instant of history when corruption has just begun to set in. The serpent has shown his scaly head in the undergrowth. The apple gleams on the tree. The old drama of the Fall is ready to start all over again.”
—Jonathan Raban (b. 1942)
