About

CARMEN is an e-Science Pilot Project funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (UK). It will deliver a virtual laboratory for neurophysiology, enabling sharing and collaborative exploitation of data, analysis code and expertise. Neural activity recordings (signals and image series) are the primary data types.

£5M are committed to 20 scientific investigators at 11 UK universities. Work commenced on 1st October 2006. Over 4 years, a prototype system will be developed, alongside 6 cutting edge use-cases. The project brings together neurophysiologists, neuroinformaticists and computer scientists, to address the complete lifecycle of neurophysiology data.
