The Nordicana D collection provides researchers with freely accessible longitudinal datasets published by the Centre for Northern Studies.
Brain Analysis Library of Spatial maps and Atlases
BALSA hosts analyzed neuroimaging datasets and indexes studies for researchers.
About Brain Analysis Library of Spatial maps and Atlases
BALSA hosts analyzed neuroimaging data in two collections: Studies, with user-submitted data associated with published figures, and Reference, with data mapped to brain atlas surfaces and volumes in humans and nonhuman primates. Scene files support data upload, preview, download, and visualization.
No login is needed to preview scene thumbnails or to download data with no release constraints. Human data is accessible after agreeing to applicable Data Use Terms, and the listed HCP-Young Adult data places some variables in a Restricted Access dataset requiring an application.
