About The Neuro C-BIG Repository Data Portal (Beta)
The Neuro Open Biobank (C-BIG) Data Portal is a web-based data portal for research on neurological diseases. It hosts a collection of biospecimens, longitudinal clinical and neuropsychiatric information, imaging data, and genetic data from patients with neurological conditions and healthy controls.
Users can browse data releases and related processing information through a LORIS login. Recent releases include over 100,000 samples, genomic data from more than 20,000 individuals, neuroimaging files, and demographic and clinical data covering over 130 diagnoses. The portal also includes an iPSC browsing module and a catalogue of patient-derived and control iPSCs. Access is divided into Open, Registered, and Controlled levels, with Registered access requiring agreement to terms and Controlled access requiring review by the Tissue and Data Committee.
The portal suits researchers and others working with neurological, imaging, and genetic datasets who need structured biobank data with defined access procedures.
