Potential Metadata Mismatch in ABIDEII-NYU_1 and ABIDEII-NYU_2 Raw Data

changwen wu — Wed, 26 Nov 2025 7:39:25 GMT

Dear ABIDE Team,
I am currently processing the raw BIDS data from the  ABIDE II datasets. I believe I have identified a potential mismatch between the NIfTI image headers and the accompanying JSON metadata files for the NYU sites.
Upon checking the data, I observed the following inconsistencies:
     ABIDEII-NYU_1： The raw images have 33 slices, but the JSON file claims there are 34.
     ABIDEII-NYU_2： The raw images have 34 slices, but the JSON file claims there are 33.
It appears that the JSON sidecar files for these two datasets may have been  mislabeled during the data organization process. This mismatch causes automated preprocessing pipelines (such as SPM or fMRIPrep) to fail during Slice Timing Correction due to the discrepancy between the expected and actual slice counts.
Could you please verify this issue?
Thank you for your time and for maintaining such a valuable resource for the community.
Best regards,

could not download COBRE

Anping Song — Mon, 14 Jul 2025 16:12:51 GMT

following the instructions on this page: https://fcon_1000.projects.nitrc.org/indi/retro/cobre.html,

I joined the 1000 Functional Connectomes Project.

Then I go back to the COBRE page, click the

COBRE_scan_data.tgz

and it led me to the NITRC page that shows 'This tool/resource's administrator will have to grant you permission to view this page.'

and i could not find COBRE in the image repository.

Could you kindly advise me on how to download the COBRE dataset?

Is the structural (T1 weighted) preprocessed MRI data available for ABIDE 1?

Has anyone successfully downloaded the ABIDE dataset? Looking for help with download steps and file structure

Hello everyone,
I’m currently working on a neuroimaging research project related to autism, and I would like to use the ABIDE (Autism Brain Imaging Data Exchange) dataset as part of my study. However, I’ve encountered some issues and would appreciate advice from anyone with experience using the dataset.
So far, I’ve downloaded data from the ABIDE official website, but most of the files I received are <code data-start="619" data-end="625">.csv</code> phenotypic data (e.g., age, sex, IQ). I haven’t been able to locate the actual MRI image files I need, such as <code data-start="737" data-end="746">.nii.gz</code> T1-weighted structural images or resting-state fMRI scans.
I also tried using the AWS CLI to sync data (e.g., using <code data-start="864" data-end="895">aws s3 sync s3://fcp-indi/...</code>), but I'm unsure where the files are saved locally, and I’m not clear on which subject folders are necessary or usable for my research. I’d really appreciate if anyone could help with the following: What method did you use to successfully download the .nii.gz MRI data? Thanks in advance to anyone willing to share their experience or advice. I really appreciate your help, and I wish you all the best in your research!

Dear teachers and classmates At present, I can only find the total table information for each site in the FCP1000 dataset, and cannot find the specific information for each participant. Where can I download the specific information for each participant in FCP1000.
Here are the website information I can find https://fcon_1000.projects.nitrc.org/fcpClassic/FcpTable.html
