EEGLAB
EEGLAB is an open-source MATLAB environment for processing continuous and event-related EEG, MEG, and related electrophysiological data. It combines an interactive graphical interface with an extensive scripting and plug
Open EEG methods and neuroinformatics
Swartz Center for Computational Neuroscience
SCCN develops open electrophysiological methods, interoperable data infrastructure, and computational neuroscience research linking neural dynamics to cognition, behavior, clinical state, and human experience.
Computational neuroscience laboratory

Core SCCN methods support analysis, annotation, data access, and reproducible EEG workflows.
NEMAR
NEMAR connects BIDS-formatted EEG, MEG, and iEEG datasets with OpenNeuro, quality visualization, and high-performance computing through SDSC and NSG. Browse and search openly shared EEG/MEG/iEEG datasets Validate metadat
HED
Hierarchical Event Descriptors make experimental events machine-actionable and comparable across datasets by adding standardized, extensible event annotation. Visit HED ↗
Research
Research themes
Real-world and multimodal neuroimaging
Simultaneously recording and modeling brain activity and body function, combining EEG, behavioral, and physiological measures such as ECG, EMG, eye-tracking, IMUs, and motion capture.
Computational modeling and EEG foundation models
Applying independent component analysis, time-frequency analysis, statistical methods, and large brain foundation models to study the neural activity underlying cognition, perception, and awareness.
Next-generation, preventive brain-computer interfaces
Developing and validating predictive and forecasting BCIs, with the long-term goal of preventive interfaces that improve the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of neurological diseases and injuries.
