Dear Biomech-L community,
I'm excited to share with you the EEGManySteps initiative, a collaborative project that addresses key challenges in mobile brain/body imaging (MoBI) research. After almost a year of active development, we've made significant progress and are now inviting biomechanists to join our efforts!
What is EEGManySteps?
EEGManySteps is an inter-institute collaboration investigating how different experimental setups and analysis methods influence MoBI research and results in mobile environments. Unlike traditional replication studies, we focus on data collection across diverse settings to understand how variations in experimental setups and processing pipelines affect the consistency and reliability of mobile brain-bhevior research.
Why Should Biomechanists Join?
As experts in human movement, your insights are invaluable to our initiative! The integration of biomechanical expertise with neurophysiological methods is essential for advancing our understanding of brain-body interactions during natural movement.
Current Status
We've already:
How You Can Contribute
We're looking for biomechanists to:
Work Packages
We've organized our work into seven key areas:
Our Commitment to Open Science
All research materials, including datasets and software, will be publicly accessible and well-documented, enabling researchers worldwide to build upon our work. Get Involved!
If you're interested in contributing to this exciting initiative, please contact us at eegmanysteps@gmail.com or reach out via our GitHub repository (https://github.com/EEGManySteps/eegmanysteps).
All the best,
The EEGManySteps Team

Current Status
We've already:
- Established a steering committee and advisory board
- Developed draft protocols ready and presented them to the advisory board for review.
- Organized into focused work packages
- Started working on position papers and funding opportunities
How You Can Contribute
We're looking for biomechanists to:
- Join the Steering Committee: Take leadership in specific work packages
- Serve on the Advisory Board: Provide expert guidance
- Contribute Data: Share existing datasets or collect new data
- Review Protocols: Help refine our methodological approaches
- Promote the Initiative: Spread the word in your networks
- Spread the word: Participate in our dissemination efforts
Work Packages
We've organized our work into seven key areas:
- Acquisition Protocols: Identifying existing datasets and standardizing collection methods
- Data Collection: Designing protocols and supporting experimental setups
- Data Curation: Converting datasets to BIDS format and parameterizing covariates
- Analysis: Developing pipelines for consistent data processing
- Dissemination: Organizing publications, tutorials, and workshops
- Funding: Identifying opportunities and writing grant proposals
- Research Questions: Developing research questions and supporting collaborations
