Browse the PublicnEUro catalogue. Some datasets are Open Access. If the dataset you want is controlled access, you will need to register first. You can then accept or complete the DUA and request the dataset. You will then receive an email with a link to the data. You can then access the data via a web browser or command-line access. Please follow citation and redistribution terms.

User registration

Human neuroimaging data may remain personal data after pseudonymisation and therefore legal contracts (i.e., data-user agreements) must be set up between authors and users, which in turn implies that users must be identifiable. Click here to register. BE SURE TO USE ONLY INSTITUTIONAL EMAIL ADDRESSES. We will contact you for a video call, having ID verification.



FOR NON EU COUNTRIES USERS

To transfer EU personal data outside EU, unless your country is on the list of adequacy countries, someone from the legal department at your institution must agree and sign the EU standard contractual clauses, available here SCC_controler2controler.docx. This is a non-negotiable legal document about personal data. If they agree, they can contact us directly/send us the signed document - once we have that, we will need to validate your ID with a video call, and any of the data becomes available, upon signing dataset-specific DUAs (some are online signing, some need the data owner to agree)

Data Access

Each dataset comes with a Data User Agreement that sets the licensing terms between authors and users. At the moment, you can request data access via the download button from the PublicnEUro catalogue.

Once you have registered, signed the DUA, and requested the dataset. Depending on the Data Controller policy, PublicnEUro can deliver immediate access after online signing ('click and download') or access is given after approval from the Data controller ('upload signed DUA and await approval'). Once access is given, you can download the dataset at any time, either using a web browser or via the command line, using a link you receive by email. LINKS ARE ACTIVE FOR 72 HOURS ONLY, but you can request a new one at any time via the web interface.

To download data you can either click the link you will receive by email or use the command line:

bash >> wget -qO- https://datacatalog.publicneuro.eu/api/cli.sh

This will prompt you to enter your email, password, the PublicnEUro (PN) ID, and the folder that you want to download (use ./ for the entire dataset).
