The NeuroFedora SIG's goal is to make Fedora a strong FOSS platform for neuroscience and neuroimaging research.  
[[File:NeuroFedoraLogo01.png|200px|frameless|right]]


The first step towards this objective is to package as many of the tools that neuroscientists use to make them available in Fedora.
The NeuroFedora SIG's goal is to provide neuroscience researchers (and enthusiasts!) a strong, easy to use, ready-made FOSS platform for their work.
We are first planning to try and match as many of the packages from the debian-based neurodebian project as possible excluding the debian-specific packaging related tools and any others for which licensing issues are a problem.
 
The second phase would be to publish a paper outlining the work here again following the [https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fninf.2012.00022/full neurodebian project paper] to give the project some exposure in the research community. A parallel track to these is to continue to publish research using the tools available in NeuroFedora.
 
(A self contained change request proposed by this SIG in the past is detailed [[Changes/NeuroFedora | here]])

== Join us! ==
 
There is no formal process for participating. Simply add yourself to [[SIGs/NeuroFedora#Who_we_are | our members-section above]] and apply to the [https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/group/view/neuro-sig Neuro-sig FAS group] to gain access to the package set. While one is required to already be a package maintainer to join the group, we're happy to help you learn packaging and [[PackageMaintainers/HowToGetSponsored#Become_a_co-maintainer | join the package maintainers group by co-maintaing packages with us]].
 
== Communication channels ==
 
* We have our maling list here: {{fplist|neuro-sig}}

We shall have them, and see how it goes.

== New packages ==
 
When submitting a new neuro-related package for review, please add "Blocks: [[rhbug:fedora-neuro|fedora-neuro]]" to your review-request.
 
When the package is approved. please modify the settings of the package on src.fedoraproject.org and give the [https://src.fedoraproject.org/group/neuro-sig neuro-sig group] commit rights so that we can help maintain the whole package set.
 
== Packages waiting for your review ==
 
You can find them on the {{bz|fedora-neuro}}. Please feel free to review tickets. We'd love to swap reviews too!
 
== Existing packages ==
 
The current list of packages we're maintaining is [https://src.fedoraproject.org/group/neuro-sig here].
 
== Categories ==
 
There is a good amount of overlap with other SIGs and Spins and some categories of NeuroFedora can be seen as BigData, Fedora-Medical, ML, Octave and SciTech in general. The classification of packages that [neuro.debian.net|NeuroDebian] uses is as follows:
 
<pre>
*Packages for Distributed Computing
*Packages for Electrophysiology
*Packages for Magnetic Reasonance Imaging
*Packages for Modeling of neural systems
*Packages for Neuroscience Datasets
*Packages for Neuroscience Education
*Packages for Psychophysics
</pre>
