Data Format Working Group

The DFWG is charged with arriving at a technical solution to the problem of multiple data formats used in fMRI research. This was identified by many investigators as a fundamental obstacle to fMRI fulfilling the promise it has to elucidate brain function. The solution arrived at by the DFWG will not be imposed on the research community, but several groups that develop fMRI-related software have already indicated their willingness to adopt the solution. Suggestions for membership on the DFWG were broadly solicited from the research community.
