<div dir="ltr">Neuroinformatics is currently soliciting submissions
for a special issue called "Building the NeuroCommons - research and
commentary on how neuroscience is
becoming open and FAIR". Submissions due <b>July 31 2020</b>.
<div>
<p>As neuroscience increasingly defines and adopts FAIR, the act of
publishing in neuroscience will not only serve to communicate new
research but drive the population of a robust, more data- and
resource-driven ecosystem - the NeuroCommons - on which to build further findings. <br></p><p>This special, open-access, issue
of Neuroinformatics is dedicated to building the
NeuroCommons and will include articles that embody the principles of
open and FAIR neuroscience:</p><ul><li>FAIRification of
neuroscience data, tools and other research objects: What does it take
to move neuroscience closer to the ideal of FAIR?</li><li>Using public data to drive discovery science</li><li>Research infrastructure for neuroscience and how it supports open and FAIR neuroscience</li><li>Standards-based
neuroscience. When and where have standards been effective? What have
we learned about creating standards and gaining adoption? Where are
they lacking?</li><li>Perspectives and commentary on the concept of the
NeuroCommons, e.g., what will it take for neuroscience to become a
data-driven discipline based on pools of open research data? What are
challenges and opportunities? Where have there been successes?</li></ul>
