The openMINDS metadata framework development started in the Human Brain Project (HBP), funded from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Framework Programme for Research and Innovation under the Specific Grant Agreements SGA-1 (No.720270), SGA-2 (No.785907), and SGA-3 (No. 945539).
The framework is further developed as part of the EBRAINS 2.0 project, funded from the European Union's Research and Innovation Program Horizon Europe under Grant Agreement GA (No.101147319).
The framework also receives support from the BigBrain Project, funded by HIBALL.
The openMINDS metadata framework is closely collaborating with the InterLex Project of the SciCrunch Data and Resource Infrastructure and the KnowledgeSpace hosted by the International Neuroinformatics Coordinating Facility (INCF).
