Key findings

Neurodesk is an open-source platform that bundles a growing suite of containerised neuroimaging tools with a browser-accessible virtual desktop, CLI, and notebook compatibility, enabling portable, reproducible analysis on personal computers, HPC, and the cloud.

Abstract

Source: pubmed

Neuroimaging research requires purpose-built analysis software, which is challenging to install and may produce different results across computing environments. The community-oriented, open-source Neurodesk platform ( https://www.neurodesk.org/ ) harnesses a comprehensive and growing suite of neuroimaging software containers. Neurodesk includes a browser-accessible virtual desktop, command-line interface and computational notebook compatibility, allowing for accessible, flexible, portable and fully reproducible neuroimaging analysis on personal workstations, high-performance computers and the cloud.
