MNE-BIDS

MNE-BIDS is a Python package that allows you to read and write BIDS-compatible datasets with the help of MNE-Python.

Why?

MNE-BIDS links BIDS and MNE-Python with the goal to make your analyses faster to code and more robust, and to facilitate data and code sharing with co-workers and collaborators.

Having your data in BIDS format also allows the use of automated pipelines, for example mne-bids-pipeline.

How?

The documentation can be found under the following links:

• for the stable release
• for the latest (development) version
