2025-2029 InDOS (Improving NeuroImaging Data for Sharing), CA24161
- Funding Agency: COST Association
- Grant call: COST Action
- Action Chair: Jochem Rieger, Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg
- LNPK role: secondary proposer (Anđela Šoškić)
- LNPK researchers: Vanja Ković, Anđela Šoškić (MC), Vojislav Jovanović, Katarina Stekić
- Link: https://www.cost.eu/actions/CA24161/
- Summary: This COST Action aims to overcome key challenges in efficiently sharing human neuroimaging data. Our consortium includes experts in different neuroimaging modalities that are linked to major open neuroimaging initiatives and experienced in the development of data and metadata standards (such as BIDS), open software tools, data privacy regulations, and in maintaining large data repositories. With this expertise, we are well-positioned to incubate and lead impactful networking activities across the EU and beyond, establishing standards, guidelines, tools, and training. Through these efforts, we will improve data sharing practices, ensuring neuroimaging data is findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable, and ethically compliant, promoting more robust, reproducible, and economically efficient field of human neuroimaging.
2025-2029 EEG101 (EEG101: Fundamentals of Open & Rigorous EEG Science), CA24148
- Funding Agency: COST Association
- Grant call: COST Action
- Action Chair: Faisal Mushtaq, University of Leeds
- LNPK role: secondary proposer (Vanja Ković)
- LNPK researchers: Vanja Ković (MC), Anđela Šoškić, Vojislav Jovanović, Katarina Stekić
- Link: https://www.cost.eu/actions/CA24148/
- Summary: Launching 101 years after the discovery of the EEG signal, the EEG101 COST Action will build on ongoing discrete community-driven open science initiatives and create a cohesive collaborative network. EEG101 will develop standardized tools and protocols for analysis and reporting, curate and harmonise large datasets, establish centralized platforms for resource sharing and collaboration, deliver Summer Schools on cutting-edge techniques and a distributed conference model that engages and empowers local communities. Through dedicated funding streams for underrepresented groups and early-career researchers, alongside grants to support engagement with industry partners, charities and policymakers, EEG101 will position Europe as a global leader in open and rigorous EEG science. Ultimately, this COST Action will directly benefit the international neuroscience community and contribute to realising the potential of EEG technology for societal impact.
2024-2026 MultiplEYE (Enabling multilingual eye-tracking data collection for human and machine language processing research), CA21131
- Funding Agency: COST Association
- Grant call: COST Action, 2022-2026 (LNPK members joined network in 2024)
- Action Chair: Lena Jäger, University of Zurich
- LNPK researchers: Vanja Ković, Anđela Šoškić, Vojislav Jovanović
- Link: https://www.cost.eu/actions/CA21131/
- Summary: The MultiplEYE COST Action aims to foster an interdisciplinary network of research groups working on collecting eye tracking data from reading in many languages. The goal is to support the development of a large multilingual eye tracking corpus and enable researchers to collect data by sharing infrastructure and their knowledge between various fields, including linguistics, psychology, and computer science. This data collection can then be used to study human language processing from a psycholinguistic perspective as well as to improve and evaluate computational language processing from a machine learning perspective.
