    Through funding from the Simons Collaboration on Plasticity and the Aging Brain (SCPAB), we assist researchers in standardizing their aging-related neuroscience data using the NWB format. This project facilitates data sharing and collaboration among SCPAB labs, enabling more effective cross-lab analyses of aging-related neural data, as well as utilization by the global neurophysiology community.

    Affiliated NWB Conversions

    Andrew Leifer

    Princeton University

    2024-03

    Developed NWB conversion tools for the Leifer lab's C. elegans neural imaging datasets. The conversion pipeline handles complex whole-brain calcium imaging data combined with optogenetic stimulation, supporting systematic mapping of neural signal propagation across thousands of neuron pairs in the worm nervous system.

    Thomas Clandinin

    Stanford University

    2023-07

    Developed NWB conversion tools for the Clandinin lab's whole-brain imaging data in Drosophila, featuring volumetric two-photon calcium imaging during locomotion. The conversion pipeline includes specialized interfaces for handling complex imaging data formats including NiFTI files, with support for brain-wide neural activity mapping during behavioral tasks.
