The NIMH Healthy Research Volunteer Dataset

The NIMH Healthy Research Volunteer Dataset is a comprehensive neuroimaging and clinical characterization study of 1,859 healthy adults. The dataset includes structural and functional MRI, diffusion tensor imaging, magnetoencephalography, cognitive assessments, psychiatric evaluations, and biospecimens. This resource enables investigations into normal cognition, mood regulation, and brain function across a deeply phenotyped healthy population.

Download this dataset

dataset 633.3 GB exceeds 100.0 GB archive limit; use direct download. Use one of the streaming methods below — all resumable. Full download guide →

  1. NEMAR CLI recommended

    Pulls the pinned version + annexed data and resumes cleanly. Install nemar-cli → 

    nemar dataset download on005752
  2. DataLad

    Clone the dataset repo and fetch file content on demand. Docs → 

    datalad clone https://github.com/nemarDatasets/on005752 on005752
cd on005752 && datalad get .
  3. git-annex

    Plain git + git-annex against the dataset repo. Docs → 

    git clone https://github.com/nemarDatasets/on005752 on005752
cd on005752 && git annex get .
  4. Direct files (wget / curl / rclone)

    Every file with a stable, range-resumable URL from the manifest. Needs curl, jq, wget (or rclone/aria2c). Docs → 

    curl -s https://data.nemar.org/on005752/v1.0.0/manifest.json | jq -r '.[].bytes_url' > urls.txt
wget -xc -i urls.txt

Compute on this dataset

Two routes today, with a third (in-browser one-click submission) landing soon.

  1. NeuroScience Gateway (NSG) portal.

    NSG runs EEGLAB / Brainstorm / MNE pipelines on supercomputing time donated by SDSC. Create an account, point a job at this dataset's S3 prefix (s3://nemar/on005752), and submit.
    nsgportal.org →

  2. Local processing with nemar-cli.

    Pull the dataset to your machine and run any toolbox locally. Honors the published version pinning. 

    npm install -g nemar-cli
nemar dataset clone on005752
cd on005752 && nemar dataset get
  3. Just the files.

    rclone, aria2c, or any HTTPS client works against data.nemar.org/on005752/ — the manifest carries presigned S3 URLs.

Direct compute access is coming soon. One-click NSG submission from this page is scoped for a follow-up phase. Tracked on nemarOrg/website#6.

    How to download

    The dataset
    nemar dataset download on005752 Clones and fetches in one step. Content under stimuli/ and derivatives/ is skipped by default because those trees can be large; add --stimuli --derivatives for the whole thing.
    A subset, one step
    nemar dataset download on005752 --subjects sub-01,02 Also filters by --sessions, --tasks, --runs, --datatypes, --include and --exclude.
    A subset, step 1
    nemar dataset clone on005752 Clones git-annex pointers only; fetches no file content. Creates ./on005752.
    A subset, step 2
    cd on005752 The get command below reads the clone's annex, so it only works from inside the clone.
    A subset, step 3
    nemar dataset get <files> Pulls the files you actually need. Skips stimuli/ and derivatives/ unless the path you ask for is under one of them.
    One small file
    https://data.nemar.org/on005752/v1.0.0/participants.tsv A direct HTTPS fetch works for any single file.
