SPARC Supported Consortia

The SPARC Data and Resource Center (DRC) are on a mission to provide neuroscience researchers with an open platform and ecosystem of FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) data, models, associated tools, and procedures. SPARC serves as an open repository, filling a vital niche in the current neuroscience repository ecosystem by providing a dedicated space for data, models, and tools focused on the peripheral nervous system (PNS), organ physiology, and PNS-CNS (central nervous system) interactions.

The DRC supports multiple consortia in addition to the original SPARC program, a major step towards long-term sustainability.
