In this talk, I will discuss the OpenNeuro Fitlins GLM package and provide an illustration of the analytic workflow. OpenNeuro FitLins GLM is a semi-automated pipeline that reduces barriers to analyzing task-based fMRI data from OpenNeuro's 600+ task datasets. Created for psychology, psychiatry and cognitive neuroscience researchers without extensive computational expertise, this tool automates what is largely a manual process and compilation of in-house scripts for data retrieval, validation, quality control, statistical modeling and reporting that, in some cases, may require weeks of effort.

Scientific progress increasingly relies on interdisciplinary collaborations as experimental and simulation datasets grow in complexity. However, these datasets are often underutilized due to inadequate solutions for data management, sharing, and analysis. Existing solutions address different aspects of the data workflow, but an integrated approach is still missing. We address these challenges within the EU-funded In2PrimateBrains [1] project, which investigates brain networks in non-human primates, using modular open-source tools, methods, and services to balance standardization and adaptabili
