The preprocessing pipeline for functional images has been significantly improved with an innovative sequence of steps, resulting in a more robust approach and better correction of susceptibility artifacts.
These changes affect fMRI, EEG-fMRI, and functional connectivity studies.
This version is fully compatible with and tested on SPM25.
A harmonization tool for maps and images has been added.
Predefined designs are now included in the fMRI Analysis Tool (fully customizable).
And much more. brunnocampos1@www.nitrc.org (Brunno M. de Campos) Tue, 09 Dec 2025 13:44:47 GMT http://www.nitrc.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=10157 http://www.nitrc.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=10157 http://www.nitrc.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=10156 ReproNim ‘First Thursdays’ Virtual Office Hours for November – Special BIDS-focused edition!

Join us for Virtual Drop-in Office Hours, Thursday November 6th (1-2pm ET).
Register Here (https://umassmed.zoom.us/meeting/register/mz3UbrqyRY2hRND3IBp8Hg) for our new Meeting Link for Office Hours (please note change)

ReproNim Office Hours are open to all; it is an opportunity to address reproducibility questions of all sorts and at any level of expertise.

This month, ReproNim faculty are encouraging questions around the use of the Brain Imaging Data Structure (BIDS) standard. We know that some folks use BIDS, others are encouraged to use it (by ReproNim and others), others have frustrations with it, and others choose not to use it. Come one, come all and ask or tell us about your BIDS experiences!

Are you having an issue with BIDS? Come with a question.
Do you have a suggestion or feedback (good or bad) for the BIDS developers? Come and talk back.
Are you tired of people telling you to use BIDS? Come and tell them why you never will.

Our goals for the session are to:
Help people find solutions
Inform ReproNim about issues with BIDS and/or its use, in order to help reduce barriers in the future
Identify success stories in order to create useful tutorials and make it easier for other investigators to use BIDS

If you cannot attend in person, that’s OK, feel free to email comments and questions to info@repronim.org. dnkennedy@www.nitrc.org (David Kennedy) Thu, 30 Oct 2025 20:00:42 GMT http://www.nitrc.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=10156 http://www.nitrc.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=10156 http://www.nitrc.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=10155 We are pleased to announce the release of NITRC-CE v0.57.28.
