[Neuroimaging] Planning for data formats - upcoming journal club

[JB Poline]

Hi,

Another thing that could be useful would be to have a look at the NWB folks
experience - they have gone through quite a few pain points - we ask one of
the developer to give a little talk / summary of their experience

I'd be interested as well
Cheers
JB
