Slicer is made possible through contributions from an international community of scientists from a multitude of fields, including engineering and biomedicine. The following sections give credit to some of the major contributors to the 3D Slicer core effort. Each 3D Slicer extension has a separate acknowledgements page with information specific to that extension.
Ongoing Slicer support depends on YOU
- Please give the Slicer repository a star on github. This is an easy way to show thanks and it can help us qualify for useful services that are only open to widely recognized open projects.
- Don't forget to cite our publications because that helps us get new grant funding.
- If you find Slicer is helpful like the community please get involved. You don't need to be a programmer to help!
