Project: Data Archive for the Brain Initiative (DABI)

Description: This project for a Data Archive for the Brain Initiative (DABI) aims to develop web-accessible data archives to capture, store, and curate data related to the BRAIN Initiative proposals that collect invasive human neurophysiological data and make them broadly available and accessible to the research community for furthering research. Data will include electrophysiology, imaging, behavioral, and clinical data with all pertinent recording and imaging parameters coming from the participating sites. This involves receiving and de-identifying data of various modalities from the participating sites, incorporating analysis tools previously developed at LONI and elsewhere, managing the data access systems, providing user interfaces to explore, visualize, interpret, and download the data, and providing comprehensive information about the projects and corresponding data through the public website that will be developed specifically for DABI.
