INCF will apply to be a mentor organization in Google Summer of Code for the 13th time running. Want to join us? If your project supports or implements INCF endorsed standards or best practices, we especially encourage you to apply! 

The INCF Training and Education Committee held a very successful Professional Development Workshop on Brain Data Science at SfN in San Diego.

Mathworks and INCF held a pilot round last summer of engaging current or recently graduated students as trainees to work on MATLAB neuroscience toolboxes. Four trainees worked with mentors from the toolboxes Automatic Analysis, EEGLAB, FieldTrip and MatNWB.

Identifiers for research resources are a new way to link papers, improve resource findability and reproducibility. A new project by SciScore and funded by the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI) will see to implement a Resource table for each preprint. 

SfN starts tomorrow - Sat Nov 12 - and we look forward to seeing you there! Here is a list of the INCF member activities that will be taking place during the week. Note that we may add to this list as the week goes on, so feel free to check back!

On October 25, the INCF SBP committee voted to endorse Neo as a standard, with standard number INCFSN-22-02.
Neo is an object model for handling electrophysiology data in multiple formats. It is suitable for representing data acquired from electroencephalographic, intracellular, or extracellular recordings, or generated from simulations.
