Objective

The Neurodata Without Borders: Neurophysiology project (NWB:N, www.nwb.org) is an effort to standardize the description and storage of neurophysiology data and metadata. NWB:N enables data sharing/reuse and reduces the energy-barrier to applying data analytics both within and across labs. Several laboratories, including the Allen Institute for Brain Science, have wholeheartedly adopted NWB:N. The community needs to join forces to achieve data standardization in neurophysiology. This hackathon event invites experts from the neuroscience community to explore adopting NWB:N for their data sharing needs and lab use cases. The goal of this event is to a) train new users on NWB:N, b) promote adoption of NWB:N, c) work with users on programming projects, e.g, to integrate examples of their labs data into NWB:N, d) facilitate communication between users and developers and project teams, and e) engage with the community.

Agenda

We are planing to have this be a full-day event for both days (April 26 and 27), starting at ~8am in the morning and ending at ~6pm in the evening. Further details will be announced here as they become available. The agenda is work in progress! Stay Tuned.
