**TVB-EBRAINS Integrated Workflows - 4th Virtual Workshop** will be held on March 12th at 9am to 15:00 CET. The purpose of this workshop series is to discuss interfaces and workflows of The Virtual Brain (TVB) in the EU Flagship’s Research Infrastructure EBRAINS. Registration is now closed.

Brain Imaging Data Structure [BIDS] is a community effort to define standards in data / metadata. Please contribute to this proposal which extends the original specification to further integrate different kinds of data, such as imaging methods we use for brain visualisation and simulation.

You can find the draft document here, and all are welcome to add suggestions to this draft: [BIDS extensio

We are pleased to announce the [5th HBP Student Conference on Interdisciplinary Brain Research](https://www.humanbrainproject.eu/en/education/HBPSC2021/). Don't miss the keynote lecture by Petra Ritter on February 1st and the Virtual Brain Cloud Workshop on February 2nd.

For several years, a growing number of video lectures on using The Virtual Brain software have been posted on various websites and YouTube playlists. We've collected the best ones, added annotations, linked them with publications and notebooks and bundled them all into the TVB EduPack!

Our new NewsWire section starts with [46 hand-picked TVB EduCases](/tvb/zwei/newswire-educase "Visit o

The Virtual Brain is gearing up towards a big new release in summer 2021! Core parts of the software have been completely rewritten to enable easier usage for scripting users, make room for exciting new features and be much, much faster!

Today we're offering an Alpha release of TVB 2.1a1 for direct download & testing:

• Download for Windows (1 GB)
• Download for macOS (750 MB)
