24		->The EBRAINS data curation process involves organising and annotating neuroscientific data to make the data discoverable and reusable.
	24	+In EBRAINS, multimodal and heterogenous neuroscience data, models and software are categorised and described in a standardised manner so that they can be effectively searched, compared, and analysed. This effort is referred to as curation.

26		-Neuroscience data are multimodal, heterogenous, and organised in different ways. All these diverse data need to be categorised and described in a standardised manner so that they can be effectively searched, compared, and analysed by using the integrated tools and workflows on the EBRAINS platform. This effort is referred to as curation.
