Ontology for Experimental Neurophysiology

OEN is an ontology aiming at describing both the context of the data (experimental procedures, devices, setup description, acquisition settings,…) and the content of the data by providing general neuroscience concepts used to describe neurophysiology data (firing pattern, spike characteristics,…). This project results from the collaboration between experts from [G-Node] (www.g-node.org), the [INCF task force on standards for sharing of electrophysiology data] (www.incf.org/programs/datasharing/electrophysiology-task-force), EEGBase, [NIF] (www.neuinfo.org), [Neuroelectro.org] (www.neurolectro.org) and e-Science Data Factory.

OEN is developed by Yann Le Franc (e-Science Data Factory), Antoine Brémaud (e-Science Data Factory), Anita Brandowski (NIF), Shreejoy Tripathy (Neuroelectro.org), Petr Bruha (EEGBase), Vaclav Papez (EEGBase), Thomas Wachtler (G-Node), Jan Grewe (G-Node), Roman Moucek (EEGBase)
