Biography

Eric Earl is a Neuroinformaticist acting as a Data Scientist in the NIMH Data Science & Sharing Team. He has been computer programming and leading projects for academic research since 2005, having been a part of the NCRAR at the Portland VA Hospital, the OHSU Biomedical Engineering Department, the OHSU Advanced Imaging Research Center, the Oregon National Primate Research Center, Damien Fair’s Neuroimaging Lab, the OHSU and UMN Developmental Cognition and Neuroimaging Labs, and Nous Imaging. He also co-invented Nous Imaging’s MRI motion monitoring software, FIRMM.

Eric’s professional interests are in improving data workflows for accessibility, managing data-heavy projects with an eye for efficient solutions, and generalizing software solutions by leveraging existent tools. In his past role as Research Associate and Computing Team Lead in the DCAN Labs he led the team to create a set of complete image processing pipelines to process fMRI sessions using the BIDS standard and BIDS App formats. This proud work was also open-sourced on GitHub and released on Docker Hub as well as getting a DOI on Zenodo for each pipeline. The abcd-hcp-pipeline was also used to process 10,000+ MRI sessions from the ABCD Study and 100+ Terabytes of derivative data from this work are shared on the NIMH Data Archive Collection 3165, fully documented on ReadTheDocs.
