Welcome to the openfnirs database! Provided below are links to open-access fNIRS datasets and information about them. Click the dataset title in the leftmost column to be taken to its download link, or hover over it to read a brief description.
We keep this page open for historical purposes, but much better resources are now available. We strongly encourage researchers to organize their datasets in a BIDS compliant format and make them publicly available at openneuro.org. We have created an online resource to help you organize your BIDS compliant dataset at bfnirs.openfnirs.org. But you can also organize them yourselves on your local machine.
This database is made possible by contributions from members of the fNIRS community like you! Please email us if you wish to add a dataset to the database below.
