Generated a quick plot to see usage trends for Open Source Brain v2 (#OSBv2): an integrated #research platform for #neuroscience that indexes multiple model and data sources (#DANDI, #ModelDB, #Biomodels, #Github) and provides compute resources on the #cloud in "workspaces". It also includes specialist applications: #NWBExplorer for working with data in the NeuroData Without Borders (#NWB) format; #NetPyNE-UI for biophysically detailed #ComputationalModelling and a #JupyterLab environment.

#NeuroML supports all stages of the modelling life-cycle with a vast ecosystem of software tools: creating (#pyNeuroML, #neuroConstruct, #NEURON, #NetPyNE, #PyNN, #N2A), validating (pyNeuroML, #OMV, #SciUnit), visualising (pyNeuroML, #OSB, #NeuroML-DB), simulating (#NEURON, #NetPyNE, #Brian, #PyNN, #NEST, #MOOSE, #EDEN), model fitting/optimisation (#NeuroTune, #BluePyOpt, NetPyNE), sharing and reusing of models (OSB, NeuroML-DB, #NeuroMorpho.org). 7/x

A number of software tools are available for construction and simulation of models: #NEURON, #NetPyNE, #Brian, #PyNN, #NEST, #MOOSE, #EDEN etc. These have their own features, styles, programming interfaces (APIs). This is great but it also means that researchers need to learn each of these individually to use them. It also means that tools and models developed for one don’t necessarily work for others and need to be manually converted. This is often a non-trivial task and limits model reuse. 3/x

INCF Endorsement of New Standards & Best Practices | INCF

INCF Standards and Best Practices Committee has developed our Standards and Best Practices (SBP) Portfolio, currently containing 12 endorsements, which are re-evaluated every two years. Continually at work to provide the neuroscience community with the most up-to-date, effective, and FAIR standards, the SBP Committee has recently endorsed three new standards!
