Multicentre studies are of utmost importance to confirm hypotheses. The lack of established standards and the ensuing complexity of their data management often hamper their implementation. The Brain Imaging Data Structure (BIDS) is an initiative for organizing and describing neuroimaging and electrophysiological data. Building on BIDS, we have developed two software programs: BIDS Manager and BIDS Uploader. The former has been designed to collect, organise and manage the data and the latter has been conceived to handle their transfer and anonymisation from the partner centres. These two programs aim at facilitating the implementation of multicentre study by providing a standardised framework.

多中心研究对于证实假设至关重要。缺乏既定标准以及随之而来的数据管理的复杂性往往会阻碍其实施。脑影像数据结构 (BIDS) 是一项用于组织和描述神经影像和电生理数据的倡议。基于 BIDS，我们开发了两个软件程序：BIDS Manager和BIDS Uploader。前者旨在收集、组织和管理数据，而后者旨在处理来自合作伙伴中心的数据传输和匿名化。这两个计划旨在通过提供标准化框架来促进多中心研究的实施。
