To: The NeuroImaging Community Across the World

Invitation to Contribute to the Development of Best Practices for niQC

The niQC special interest group (SIG) aims to standardize and develop best practices for neuroimaging QC and Quality Assurance (QA). We invite you to fill this survey, to help us to get a sense of various types of QC/QA that is done in the neuroimaging community. We would like you to cover the “full life-cycle” of neuroimaging research, including but not limited to data collection, preprocessing, intermediate outputs and final results. We request you to provide details into the various QC/QA processes you conduct in your projects. We plan to analyze all the responses from the community to identify the challenges our community is facing, consolidate and review existing research, develop protocols, compile manuals, improve tools, and make recommendations for best practices.

This survey is fully anonymous and we do not track anything. We plan to publicly release your input, in its raw form as well as in various forms of aggregate summaries. In addition to the aforementioned uses, your response will be used for anything else the group would consider necessary in the future to advance its mission. Your participation is voluntary and you can withdraw from this survey anytime.

Thank you.
