Synopsis: The Neuroscience Information Framework (NIF; http://neuinfo.org) is an open community resource for researchers, educators, and students and trainees. NIF’s discovery portal facilitates access to a collection of diverse research resources (i.e. the multitude of data, software tools, materials, services, projects and organizations available to researchers in the public domain) that can help foster research through its Resource and Data Discovery Index. NIF utilizes many advanced features for information retrieval and integration. Chief among these is the use of a shared vocabulary for describing and querying resources which currently consists of thousands of concepts derived from community-built ontologies and vocabularies and enhanced through the input of neuroscience experts. NIF’s infrastructure is being used as a foundation for a number of initiatives that support the FAIR Principles. ensuring that data and information are Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Re-usable. This webinar will provide an introduction to the Neuroscience Information Framework, the tools and services available to the community, and an overview of initiatives being supported by NIF, and how one can contribute to and get involved with NIF.
