Abstract

The Organization for Human Brain Mapping (OHBM) has been active in advocating for the instantiation of best practices in neuroimaging data acquisition, analysis, reporting & sharing of both data & analysis code to deal with issues in science related to reproducibility & replicability.

Here we summarize recommendations for such practices in magnetoencephalographic (MEG) & electroencephalographic (EEG) research, recently developed by the OHBM neuroimaging community known by the abbreviated name of COBIDAS MEEG.

We discuss the rationale for the guidelines & their general content, which encompass many topics under active discussion in the field.

We highlight future opportunities & challenges to maximizing the sharing & exploitation of MEG & EEG data, & we also discuss how this ‘living’ set of guidelines will evolve to continually address new developments in neurophysiological assessment methods & multimodal integration of neurophysiological data with other data types.
