#Others:

  • The ABCD (AntiBodies Chemically Defined) Database
  • NeuroMorpho.Org is a centrally curated inventory of digitally reconstructed neurons and glia associated with peer-reviewed publications.
  • OpenNeuro: A free and open platform for validating and sharing BIDS-compliant MRI, PET, MEG, EEG, and iEEG data.

#REgistry of REsearch data REpositories

https://www.re3data.org

Re3data is a global registry of research data repositories that covers research data repositories from different academic disciplines. It includes repositories that enable permanent storage of and access to data sets to researchers, funding bodies, publishers, and scholarly institutions. re3data promotes a culture of sharing, increased access and better visibility of research data. The registry has gone live in autumn 2012 and has been funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG).

The use of re3data is also recommended in the European Commission’s “Guidelines on Open Access to Scientific Publications and Research Data in Horizon 2020”.
