Who is using BIDS?
as of 03/02/2018
- 290 members on the bids google discussion group
- 600 users on OpenFMRI (Now OpenNeuro)
- 85 responses to a tweet asking who is organizing their data according to BIDS
- Lab/Name Dropping
- Tor Wager, Ted Satterthwaite, Jeanette Mumford, Desposito Lab, David Warren, Hans Johnson, Michelle Voss, and many more
Why is BIDS Useful?
- Helps keep track of data within a lab
- Helps with collaboration between labs
- Helps with data sharing
