Area of Science:

Neuroscience
Computational Biology
Data Science

Background:

Neurophysiological data are collected using electrophysiological and optical methods across diverse species, from flies to humans.
Integrating this data is crucial for understanding complex brain functions.
Current data practices lack standardization, hindering findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reusability (FAIR principles).

Purpose of the Study:

To design and implement a standardized data language for neurophysiology.
To promote FAIR data principles within the neuroscience community.
To facilitate data integration and reuse across diverse experimental contexts.

Main Methods:

Development of the open-source Neurodata Without Borders (NWB) software.
Modular design principles to define interdependent data and metadata components.
Demonstration of NWB's capability to unify neurophysiology data description.

Main Results:

NWB successfully unifies the description of neurophysiology data across various modalities and species.
The NWB software provides a modular framework for neurophysiology data.
An ecosystem of tools for data management, analysis, and visualization supports NWB.

Conclusions:

The NWB data language enables reproduction, interchange, and reuse of diverse neurophysiology data.
NWB facilitates the integration of data across different experimental systems and species.
The design principles of NWB are broadly applicable to enhance biological data FAIRness.
