+PyNN (pronounced 'pine') is a simulator-independent language for building neuronal network models. 
 In other words, you can write the code for a model once, using the PyNN API
 and the Python programming language, and then run it without modification

 #### NIF
 
-..
+The Neuroscience Information Framework (NIF), an initiative of the NIH Blueprint 
+for Neuroscience Research,  is a semantically-enhanced portal to web-based 
+neuroscience resources: data, materials, and tools. NIF has developed search 
+tools, which expose the contents of federated databases and deep or “hidden” web 
+resources hidden from traditional search engines. NIF is designed to serve the 
+neuroscience research community and is actively looking for resource providers 
+to make their resources accessible through NIF.
