Human Intracerebral EEG Platform Platform (HIP)

 

Description of the platform's activity
The Human Intracerebral EEG Platform (HIP) is a digital platform dedicated to the collection, storage, sharing and analysis of Human intracerebral EEG data recorded from patients with drug resistant epilepsy undergoing pre-surgical evaluation using stereo-EEG (SEEG). It provides unique facilities to transfer such data from hospitals to the HIP, convert EEG files into BIDS-SEEG format, access workflows to precisely locate each recording SEEG contact on patient’s MRI, and run state-of-the-art SEEG analytical tools. 73 European, Asian and Australian centers have committed to share SEEG data on HIP, representing up to 1000 patients per year. Such data are being used to investigate scientific issues in the fields of epilepsy but also cognition at large.

Equipment & Expertise
The HIP is being developed by the NeuroTech team within the framework of the Human Brain Project (HBP). In September 2022, a HIP closed-beta version was opened to 10 European Health Centers for exploration and testing of the provided functionalities. The platform is supported by an IT and scientific team.

Mission & Services
The HIP team @ NeuroTech is committed to promote the usage of the HIP by investigators interested in using SEEG data for epilepsy or cognition-driven research. In particular, novel cognitive paradigms are welcome to enrich the list of research protocols run by the HIP consortium.
