BrainSTEM (Brain STructured Experimental Metadata) is a collaborative electronic lab notebook for FAIR experimental neuroscience. It has a customizable web interface and a standardized yet flexible data model and is designed to capture a range of electrophysiology, imaging, and behavioral data. Granular permissions, including one-click public sharing, promote collaborations and open science. BrainSTEM is designed with ease of adoption and use as a primary consideration and facilitates compliance with NIH and other data-sharing requirements.

BrainSTEM can accelerate your science, promote collaboration, extend the lifetime of your data, and make FAIR data sharing easy. Please see the dedicated documentation website at below link.
