The neuroimaging data releases contain the MRI data, physiological data obtained during scanning (cardiac and respiratory) and only basic phenotypic information (age, sex, handedness). The following scans are included for subjects in the Cross-Sectional Lifespan Connectomics, Longitudinal Developmental Connectomics, Real-Time Neurofeedback , and Mapping Interindividual Variation In The Aging Connectome studies:

• Anatomical (MPRAGE)
• Diffusion Tensor Imaging (137 Directions)
• Resting Functional (TR = 645ms, Multiband)
• Resting Functional (TR = 1400ms, Multiband)
• Resting Functional (TR = 2500ms)
• Visual Checkerboard (TR = 645ms, Multiband)
• Visual Checkerboard (TR = 1400ms, Multiband)
• Breath Hold (TR = 1400ms, Multiband)

The Real-Time Neurofeedback study includes these additional scans:

• Anatomical (MPRAGE)
• Default Mode Network Training Scan
• Default Mode Network Testing Scan
• Moral Dilemma
• MSIT
• PEER1
• PEER2

Downloading Neuroimaging Data Release Data from the FCP-INDI S3 Bucket

Data for the Rockland Sample Neuroimaging Data Release are available for download in an Amazon Web Services S3 bucket. The bucket is publicly available and the path is s3://fcp-indi/data/Projects/RocklandSample/RawDataBIDSLatest 

This is the latest data release of raw data organized in the BIDS format. This folder includes data from all releases. Since the BIDS format makes provisions for phenotypic and data collected during scanning (physiological,event-related), this data is also included in this folder in addition to the MRI series NifTIs. DICOMs are not included. This file AWS Links contains the links to all the imaging files in the S3 bucket. It also contains information regarding gender, age (years), and handedness (Edinburg Handedness Inventory – EHI) for each participant at each imaging session. Information about the coding of the visit sessions can be seen here.

Please note, other folders within the Rockland Sample folder in the S3 bucket are outdated and no longer supported.

There are two supported options on how to download imaging data from our S3 bucket:

1. Using the Downloader Script for S3 (Bash or Python)

Click here for Step-by-step instruction on how to download neuroimaging data using a bash or a python script.

2. Using Cyberduck

There are file transfer programs that can handle S3 natively and will allow you to navigate through the data using a file browser. Cyberduck is one such program that works with Windows and Mac OS X. Cyberduck also has a command line version that works with Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. Instructions for using Cyberduck are as follows:

1. Open Cyberduck and click on Open Connection.
2. Set the application protocol in the dropdown menu to S3 (Amazon Simple Storage Service).
3. Set the server to s3.amazonaws.com.
4. Check the box labelled Anonymous Login.
5. Expand the More Options tab and set Path to fcp-indi/data/Projects/RocklandSample.
6. Click Connect.

The end result should appear as follows:
