Derived Data Working Group

The difficulties of sharing and combining data across multiple sites become amplified after post-processing and/or data analysis. The Derived Data Working Group is focused on understanding, addressing and solving these difficulties.

This WG is working closely with researchers at UC Irvine, Columbia, Duke, MIT, MRN and INCF on these goals:

  • Develop provenance and derived data extraction scripts for common neuroimaging analysis software and pipelines
  • Extend tools and specifications for international community requirements
  • Create/curate an initial neuroimaging terminology and ontology for derived data and common neuroimaging concepts
  • Augment/improve derived data import and query functionality for multi-site derived data federations
BIRN is supported by NIH grants 1U24-RR025736, U24-RR021992, U24-RR021760 and by the Collaborative Tools Support Network Award 1U24-RR026057-01.
