The Neuroscience Information Framework: A Data and Knowledge Environment for Neuroscience
Daniel Gardner,Huda Akil,Giorgio A. Ascoli,Douglas M. Bowden,William J. Bug,Duncan E. Donohue,David H. Goldberg,Bernice Grafstein,Jeffrey S. Grethe,Amarnath Gupta,Maryam Halavi,David N. Kennedy,Luis N. Marenco,Maryann E. Martone,Perry L. Miller,Hans-Michael Müller,Adrian Robert,Gordon M. Shepherd,Paul W. Sternberg,David C. Van Essen,Robert W. Williams +20 more
TL;DR: The Neuroscience Information Framework arises from the expressed need of the neuroscience community for neuroinformatic tools and resources to aid scientific inquiry, builds upon prior development of neuroinformatics by the Human Brain Project and others, and directly derives from the Society for Neuroscience’s Neuroscience Database Gateway.
