*Register today: Neuroinformatics Assembly 2023*

Learn about and share the latest advancements in neuroinformatics! This
year’s theme is Transparency in FAIR Neuroinformatics and the following
topics will be represented at the assembly:

- "Opening the black box”: How to make AI/ML interpretable for
Neuroinformatics
- “A FAIR share”: The feasibility and scalability of data sharing from the
infrastructure POV
- A FAIR roadmap for knowledge graphs and ontologies
- “Is this FAIR?”: Transparency in EDI & career development & management
- From repositories to workflows: A FAIR roadmap for building and endorsing
tools

*Global survey on data-sharing barriers in neuroscience*

Our Infrastructure Committee is trying to identify barriers to data sharing
and reuse among neuroscience researchers worldwide, with a brief anonymous
survey. The results will be made public, and will be used by INCF and
collaborators to develop strategies and activities for supporting the
global neuroscience community.

To have real impact, the survey needs to reach the broadest possible range
of neuroscience researchers.  We would be very grateful for your help in
spreading the word to your friends and colleagues - the more responses we
get, the more valuable and useful the survey will be!

*Call for community review: Two standards*
We're seeking community feedback on two new neuroscience standards:

1. Digital SWC Reconstructions Describing Neuron Morphology
Comment on this standard <https://www.incf.org/commentaries/swc>
Review by Aug 15

2. SPARC Data Structure
Comment on this standard <https://www.incf.org/commentaries/sparc>
Review by Aug 15

Community feedback is an important part of our review process; it helps us
ensure that the standard has community support and is useful and practical
to the community. By commenting, you contribute to improving the standard
for current and future users!
