<p><b>NeuroDataShare 2023: Exploring and sharing multi-scale
neuroscience data</b></p>
<p>Sainsbury Wellcome Centre, London, UK</p>
<p><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.neurodatashare.org">http://www.neurodatashare.org</a><br>
</p>
<p> Modern experimental neuroscience is producing huge amounts of
data at a rapidly increasing pace, with population recordings
using multielectrode arrays and imaging and simultaneous
behavioural data together with transcriptomics and anatomical
reconstructions. While these data are useful to those who obtain
them in the original studies, their value is magnified when they
are shared in accessible formats with the wider community for use
in new studies, and to investigate brain function from different
perspectives. To facilitate this, many groups are developing
tools, standardised languages and databases to help specify,
analyse, visualise and share such data sets. </p>
<p><b>This meeting will bring together experimentalists, those
offering infrastructure solutions for sharing data in
neuroscience and those who wish to reuse, reanalyse and gain new
insight into publicly available datasets.</b></p>
<p>The meeting will consist of a <b>2 day workshop of <a href="http://www.neurodatashare.org/programme.html">scientific
presentations</a> (Mon 20th & Tues 21st Feb 2023)</b> at
the <a href="http://www.neurodatashare.org/directions">Sainsbury
Wellcome Centre</a> from leading neuroscientists who are
generating data of different types across multiple scales, who are
faced with issues of how to disseminate their output to other
researchers. Scientific talks will be complemented by
presentations from those developing the infrastructure to
standardise and share data, and there will be discussions on the
challenges and opportunities of greater data sharing in
neuroscience.</p>
<p>The second part of the meeting will be a smaller, more focussed <b>2
day <a href="http://www.neurodatashare.org/hackathon.html">hackathon</a>
(Wed 22nd & Thus 23rd Feb 2023)</b> where PhD students,
postdocs and PIs will get hands on demonstrations to get their
data into standardised formats, including <a href="https://www.nwb.org/">Neurodata Without Borders</a>, as
well as help with sharing the data on the <a href="https://www.v2.opensourcebrain.org/">Open Source Brain
platform</a>.</p>
<p>We look forward to welcoming you to London!</p>
