*Dear Colleagues - [with corrected linked letter template below]As this
linked letter text template
<http://sccn.ucsd.edu/~scott/temp/LOS_template_NEMAR18.txt> explains, we
are pulling together (on quite short notice, but now with needed green
light approval from the NIMH Office of Technology Development and
Coordination) a proposal for a national data archive and active data
analysis resource for processing and data mining of new and existing
'neuroelectromagnetic' (EEG, MEG, and iEEG) data. In a collaboration with
Russ Poldrack and Chris Gorgolewski and their OpenNeuro.org
<http://openneuro.org/> project, our 'NEMAR' project will aggregate data
via our Neuroscience Gateway portal (nsgportal.org <http://nsgportal.org/>)
which now provides an initial library of analysis tools, including all of
EEGLAB <http://sccn.ucsd.edu/wiki/EEGLAB_on_NSG>, to apply to uploaded data
using XSEDE high-performance, high-throughput and cloud computing
resources. Our goal is to bring human electromagnetic neuroimaging into the
age of 'large data' source analysis, search, and mining. NIMH, within its
BRAIN Initiative effort, aims to provide data archives that function as
active data processing resources for brain research communities including
ours. We will begin by focusing on aggregating EEG and MEG data of all
types, with iEEG data to follow as well as relevant multimodal data as the
relevant Brain Imaging Data Structure (BIDS) <http://bids.neuroimaging.io/>
archiving standards are published. For detailed annotation of experimental
events, allowing search and integration across studies we will use the
Hierarchical Event Descriptor (HED) system <http://hedtags.org/>
(hedtags.org <http://www.hedtags.org/>).To have a realistic chance for
funding, we need to demonstrate as much research community interest as
possible to the BRAIN Initiative review panel. The attached letter gives
more details and includes a request for a letter of interest and support to
accompany our proposal -- which we must submit on Sept. 27, 2018 (only a
week from this Wednesday)... Thanking you in advance for your possible
interest -- we would also appreciate hearing your questions and
suggestions...Scott Makeig       Arnaud Delorme     Amit MajumdarSwartz
