EEG101 — Fundamentals of Open & Rigorous EEG Science
Overview
EEG101 (COST Action CA24148) is a European research network launched in November 2025 to reduce methodological inconsistencies in EEG science by developing shared standards, harmonised datasets, and collaborative open-science infrastructure. Funded by COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) and running until 2029, it organises its work through three working groups covering reporting standards, data curation and harmonisation, and a community manifesto for open and ethical EEG science. The Paris Brain Institute leads Working Group 3, which develops the EEG Community Framework defining ethical, open, and sustainable principles for EEG research, aiming to shift norms across researchers, institutions, journals, and funders.
Working Groups
- Working Group 1 (Reporting Standards) develops standardised reporting guidelines and pre-registration templates to improve transparency and reproducibility across EEG experimental designs, working with journals to promote adoption.
- Working Group 2 (Data Curation and Harmonisation) curates BIDS-compliant EEG datasets and develops analysis pipelines and harmonisation tools to make data comparable across laboratories, devices, and populations.
- Working Group 3 (Manifesto for EEG Science), led by the Paris Brain Institute, produces a community-driven manifesto and the EEG Community Framework to promote cultural change in how EEG science is conducted and reported globally.
