About

The goal of this Working Group is to develop a set of specifications and tools that would allow standardization of a directory structure for experimental data, recorded with animal models in neuroscience. It will capitalize on the success of BIDS for human neuroimaging data, while retaining the specificities of data sets obtained in animal models. This standardized data structure will facilitate reproducible research and data sharing following the FAIR principles.

Aims

The objective of this WG is to standardize the organization of experimental data recorded with animal models in neuroscience. Specifically, the WG aim to develop:

  • A recommended file organization in a directory structure
  • File naming conventions
  • Better organization of the metadata
  • New file formats for data and metadata
Deliverables
2024
  • Recommended directory structure and file naming convention (expected)
  • Recommended organization of the metadata (expected)
  • Specifications of file formats for the data and metadata (expected)
  • Finalization of BIDS Extension Proposal (BEP032) (expected)
2024
