We are excited to announce a new release of DIPY:


DIPY 1.1.1 is out! In addition:


a) A new 5 day workshop available during March 16-20 to learn the theory and applications of the hundreds of methods available in DIPY 1.1.1  Intense!

See the exquisite program here.


b) Given the need for a myriad of new DIPY derivative projects, DIPY moved to its own organization in GitHub. Long live DIPY! 
And therefore, https://github.com/dipy/dipy supersedes https://github.com/nipy/dipy The old link will be available as a redirect link for the next 6 months.

c) Please support us by citing DIPY in your papers using the following DOI: 10.3389/fninf.2014.00008 otherwise the DIPY citation police will find you. ;)
