NWB:N 2.0 is a data standard for neurophysiology, providing neuroscientists with a common standard to share, archive, use, and build common analysis tools for neurophysiology data. The standard is designed to store a variety of neurophysiology data, including from intracellular and extracellular electrophysiology experiments, optical physiology experiments, as well as tracking and stimulus data.

INCF and the CTSI are organizing The Brain Summit 2018: "Towards the alignment of the large-scale brain initiatives in support of clinical data", a symposium with emphasis on coordination and alignment of efforts.
