33 We strongly recommend to **start preparing for data sharing as early as possible**. With a structured data repository and adequate notes on how the data was acquired, you greatly minimize the effort required to publish your data. The time it takes to share data on EBRAINS heavily depends on on the engagement from the researcher and how well the data and metadata is prepared before-hand. Contact us for personalised guidance on how to prepare for sharing.

43 == **The EBRAINS curation process** ==
44
45 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. 
46
47 >The EBRAINS curation process involves organising and annotating neuroscientific data to make the data discoverable and reusable.
48
49 Behind this process is the EBRAINS Curation team. Our mandate is to support you in sharing your data in line with the [[**FAIR principles**>>https://www.go-fair.org/fair-principles/]], whether you choose to describe only the key aspects of your data, or can invest in adding more detailed metadata.
50
51 Curated data, models and software are made available in [[the EBRAINS Knowledge Graph>>https://kg.ebrains.eu/]]. This makes the data and metadata discoverable in the [[Knowledge Graph Search>>url:https://search.kg.ebrains.eu/]] and the [[Knowledge Graph API>>url:https://docs.kg.ebrains.eu/8387ccd27a186dea3dd0b949dc528842/api_endpoints.html]]. The data, models and software are integrated in the EBRAINS Knowledge Graph by interoperable metadata schemas defined in [[openMINDS>>url:https://github.com/HumanBrainProject/openMINDS/wiki]].Data and models are linked to and discoverable via the species-specific [[EBRAINS siibra atlas viewer>>url:https://ebrains.eu/services/atlases/brain-atlases]] by using interoperable metadata schemas as defined in [[SANDS>>url:https://github.com/HumanBrainProject/SANDS/wiki]].
52
53 The curation of data, models and software is different. Thus, below we explain the process for sharing for each research product separately.

81
82 //Opt. 1. //For smaller datasets with a reasonable amount of files, we recommend using the Collab-Bucket solution (drag-and-drop). A Collab Bucket must first be assigned to a dataset, which happens when a datasets is accepted for sharing.
83
84 //Opt. 2. //For larger datasets or datasets with a large amount of files, we recommend using a programmatic approach. The [[python script>>https://github.com/eapapp/ebrains-data-storage/tree/main/data-proxy]] is interactive and does not require any additional programming.

96
97 //Opt. 1.// Manually submit the minimal required metadata via the [[EBRAINS Metadata wizard>>https://ebrains-metadata-wizard.apps.hbp.eu/]]. The minimal required metadata covers extended bibliographic information necessary to publish your dataset on EBRAINS. The submitted information, including uploaded files, will be sent to the Curation team automatically
98
99 //Opt. 2.// To go beyond the minimal required metadata, you can directly interact with the Knowledge Graph (KG) in your private space. Within the private space, you can upload metadata and interact with them, moreover you can connect your metadata to existing publicly accessible entries. Access to your private space is granted upon the initiation of the curation process. You can access your private space via:
100
101 * Knowledge Graph Editor: This User Interface allows you to manually enter metadata into your KG space and validate metadata that are programmatically uploaded. The Editor contains a basic set of openMINDS metadata templates, but can be extended to the full openMINDS metadata model on request. Access is granted once the request is accepted.
102 * [[Fairgraph>>https://fairgraph.readthedocs.io/en/stable/]]: This is the recommended software tool for programmatic interaction with the KG. It allows you to programmatically upload openMINDS compliant metadata into your KG space and interact with existing metadata.
103 * [[KG Core Python SDK>>https://github.com/HumanBrainProject/kg-core-sdks]]: This python package gives you full freedom in interacting with he KG. It allows you to upload any JSON-LD with metadata into your private space. Note, for dataset publications in EBRAINS, the JSON-LD metadata files have to comply to openMINDS.
104
105
106 Datasets published through the EBRAINS Knowledge Graph have to be registered using **openMINDS compliant metadata** delivered as JSON-LD files. See this summary table for an overview of [[the minimally required openMINDS properties for publishing>>https://drive.ebrains.eu/lib/47995dbc-f576-4008-a76c-eefbfd818529/file/ebrains-minimum-required-metadata.xlsx]] on EBRAINS.
107
108
109 **The openMINDS metadata framework**
110
111 openMINDS (open Metadata Initiative for Neuroscience Data Structures) is a community-driven, open-source metadata framework for graph database systems, such as the EBRAINS Knowledge Graph. It is composed of linked metadata models, libraries of serviceable metadata instances, and supportive tooling ([[openMINDS Python>>url:https://pypi.org/project/openMINDS/]], openMINDS Matlab). For exploring the openMINDS schemas, go to the [[HTML documentation>>url:https://humanbrainproject.github.io/openMINDS/]]. For a full overview of the framework, go to [[the openMINDS collab>>url:https://wiki.ebrains.eu/bin/view/Collabs/openminds/]] or the [[GitHub repository>>https://github.com/HumanBrainProject/openMINDS]].

142 ==== **Sharing human data ** ====
143

145 (((
146 **Human subject data that can be shared on EBRAINS consists of:**
147
148 - Post-mortem data
149 - Aggregated data
150 - Strongly pseudonymized or de-identified subject data with a legal basis for sharing (e.g. Informed Consent)
151
152 (% class="small" %)//If you have human data that does not classify as any of the above, please get in touch and we will clarify the available options. //
153 )))
154
155 Human data shared on EBRAINS must comply with [[GDPR >>https://gdpr-info.eu/]]and [[EU directives>>https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=celex%3A32010L0063]]. The information we need to assess this is collected via our [[Ethics and Regulatory Compliance Survey>>https://nettskjema.no/a/224765]].
156
157 Post-mortem and aggregated human data can be shared openly, given direct identifiers in the metadata are removed. Strongly pseudonymized and de-identified data can be shared via the Human Data Gateway (HDG).
158
159 The Human Data Gateway (HDG) was introduced in February 2021 as a response to the needs of multiple data providers who are bringing human subject data to EBRAINS. HDG covers the sharing of strongly pseudonymized or de-identified data, a limited range human subject data without direct identifiers and with very few indirect identifiers.
160
161 The HDG adds an an authentication layer on top of the data. This means that **data users **must request access to the data (via their EBRAINS account) and will receive access provided they actively accept the [[EBRAINS Access Policy>>https://ebrains.eu/terms#access-policy]], the [[EBRAINS General Terms of Use>>https://ebrains.eu/terms#general-terms-of-use]], and the [[EBRAINS Data Use Agreement>>https://ebrains.eu/terms#data-use-agreement]]. The account holder also have to accept that information about their request and access to specific data under HDG is being tracked and stored. **Data owners** must be aware that sharing under the HDG affects the legal responsibilities for the data. They must agree to joint control of the data (see the [[Data Provision Protocol v1>>url:https://strapi-prod.sos-ch-dk-2.exo.io/EBRAINS_Data_Provision_Protocol_dfe0dcb104.pdf]], section 1.4 - 1.5) and the Data Protection Officers of the responsible institutions must have accepted that the data can be shared under HDG.
162
163 The HDG is an extension of the existing services and does not replace the future EBRAINS Service for sensitive data (planned for 2024) which is outside the domain of the current EBRAINS Data and Knowledge services.

184 1. In the next step you need to enter the metadata of your software in the [[Knowledge Graph Editor>>url:https://editor.kg.ebrains.eu/]] by using the links provided in the ticket. The links will lead you to the space in the KG, which was created especially for you. You can start directly with the editing of your software. Please provide the metadata for your software as complete as possible. This makes it easier for users to find and use your software. If you have questions feel free to contact the curation support.
185 1. After you have finished editing your entries, please let the curators know by replying to your ticket. We curate your metadata and get back to you, if necessary.
186 1. After a quality check, we integrate and publish the information to the Knowledge Graph. Your software is then searchable and usable for the neuroscience community.

311 * Integrate image data with //the Mio viewer//: EBRAINS Multi-Image OpenSeadragon viewer provides an intuitive way of navigating high-resolution 2D image series. It has browser-based classic pan and zoom capabilities. A collection can be displayed as a filmstrip (Filmstrip Mode) or as a table (Collection Mode) with adjustable number of row and columns. See [[Mio viewer links available for this dataset>>https://search.kg.ebrains.eu/?category=Dataset&q=nr2f1#9677359c-73fa-4425-b8fa-3de794e9017a]] as an example. MioViewer user manual is found [[here>>https://multi-image-osd.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html]].
312 * Integrate atlas-registered 2D image data with //the LocaliZoom viewer//: The EBRAINS LocaliZoom serial section viewer displays series of registered 2D section images with atlas overlay, allowing the users to zoom into high-resolution images and have information about the brain regions. See the [[LocaliZoom links available for this dataset>>https://doi.org/10.25493/T686-7BX]] as an example. LocaliZoom user manual is found [[here>>https://localizoom.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html]].

The siibra-explorer viewer uses siibra-api to enable navigation of brain region hierarchies, maps in different coordinate spaces, and linked regional data features. Furthermore, it is connected with the siibra toolsuite providing several analytical workflows. To learn more about how to integrate your data to atlases, check out the [[Atlas services>>https://ebrains.eu/services/atlases#Integratedatatoanatlas]] on ebrains.eu.

318 === **The benefits of sharing data ** ===
319
320 (% style="color:#000000" %)Sharing your data, models or code (research products) via EBRAINS makes it discoverable amongst other research products available in the (%%)[[(% style="color:#000000" %)EBRAINS Knowledge Graph>>https://kg.ebrains.eu/]](%%). This is made possible by the highly flexible metadata framework describing neuroscience data in detail.
321
322 (% style="color:#000000" %)EBRAINS is gradually implementing interconnected tools and analysis workflows developed in the Human Brain Project (HBP) to further enhance the output from adding your dataset to the database.

359 Publishing your data naturally takes some time and effort but we will support you as much as possible. If communication is on a regular basis, we are able to finish basic curation - from the initial contact to dataset release - within two weeks.
360
361 >Sharing my data is not beneficial for me - only for others
362
363
364 When you publish your data via EBRAINS, we provide comprehensive data management support and safe long term storage - all free of charge. Additionally, your data can be cited, just like a scientific journal article. Sharing your data may even lead to new funding opportunities. Many funders specifically support projects that are part of the “Open Science” initiative.
365
366 >My data is too insignificant to share
367
368
369 There is no such thing as insignificant data. Data that is considered insignificant for a given topic, may have great significance for another. By making “insignificant” data publicly available, other researchers may find something interesting that was off-topic for your own purposes.
370
371 >My data can easily be misused if I share it with the world
372
373
374 Your data will be covered by a Creative Commons license of your choice. There are a variety of licenses available, enabling you to prevent use for specific purposes, e.g. commercial use.
375
376 >I don't think I'm allowed to share my data
377
378
379 Many institutions are still very careful about what can be shared and how, but the situation is constantly evolving. As a researcher providing data, you will be asked to fill out an ethics compliance survey which survey to ensure that data published through the EBRAINS platform has been collected according to EU regulations. We are working on solutions for sharing anonymised human data that complies with GDPR standards to protect the identity of research subjects.
380
381 >I can't share my data before my paper is published
382
383
384 If you do not want to share your data before publishing the results in an article, you can publish your dataset with an embargo status. This will make it possible to find information about the data without making the data itself available, and give you a citeable DOI.
385
386 >If I share my data before I publish the associated paper, I will lose my competitive edge
387
388
389 Publishing your data does not mean that others can use it however they want. Use of your data will require citation, and by choosing an appropriate Creative Commons licence you decide what others are allowed to do with it. If you still feel worried, you can publish your data under embargo, and in this way delay the date of data release, but still make it possible for others to find the information about the data.
