Brainhack Marseille

Project Description

We are currently developing a standard for organizing electrophysiological data recorded in animal models. It consists in extending the BIDS standard so that it supports this new data modality, using either the NIX or NWB data format.

This project is not a classical project, it is just a way to say that we’re available to discuss all this during Brainhack Marseille (and also Brainhack Global)! So come and chat with us if you’re an electrophysiologist interested in open science (or a python developer with some spare time).

Link to project repository/sources

• the official BIDS extension proposal document (don’t try to read it on your own, it’s boring / cryptic!!!): https://bids.neuroimaging.io/bep032
• a repo with associated software tools: https://github.com/INT-NIT/BEP032tools

Goals for Brainhack Global

Chatting, discussing, making progress!

Good first issues

• we can lead neuroscientists towards tools that can help convert data to BIDS and/or NWB
