Register to dive into “Doing transparent and reliable EEG research”
Registration is now open for the Brain Products Academy webinar Doing transparent and reliable EEG research taking place on May 12 & 13, 2026.
Reproducibility is a cornerstone of scientific progress, but EEG research often faces obstacles that make it difficult to compare studies or replicate findings. Differences in hardware, software, preprocessing pipelines, and interpretation strategies can lead to inconsistent results. Our upcoming Brain Products Academy webinar focuses on how the community can move toward more standardized, open, and collaborative practices.
This event is designed for researchers who want to strengthen the transparency, standardization, and reproducibility of their EEG work. Two leading experts in open science and EEG methodology, Dr. Robert Oostenveld and Dr. Cyril Pernet, will address these challenges and offer practical guidance for improving research quality.
The session will explore:
- Current gaps in tools, resources, and training
- How to improve standardization across EEG workflows
- Best practices for data sharing and reproducibility
- Strategies for implementing good scientific practice
- Opportunities to engage with community-driven initiatives
Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss how to apply open science principles in their own research.
Meet the experts
Dr. Robert Oostenveld
Associate Principal Investigator, Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour, Radboud University
Robert has more than 25 years of experience using EEG in research. His work focuses on developing novel methods for EEG and MEG analysis, including signal processing, source reconstruction, connectivity analysis, and statistical analysis. He leads the widely used FieldTrip toolbox and collaborates closely with the EEGLAB community. He is also involved in open science initiatives such as BIDS, ARTEM-IS, EEG101, INDoS, EEGManyPipelines, and EEGManyArtifacts, and contributes tools, standards, and educational resources that support transparent and reproducible research.
Dr. Cyril Pernet
Senior Research Software Developer, Copenhagen University Hospital
Cyril is an early and active contributor to open science in neuroimaging. He co-created the BIDS standard alongside Robert and continues to develop it. He is the technical lead for PublicnEUro.eu, a platform for sharing BIDS datasets that require controlled access (e.g., GDPR-sensitive data). Cyril also co-developed and maintains LIMO-EEG, an open-source plugin that enables advanced statistical modelling in EEGLAB and FieldTrip.
