Physiopy is a community that develops solutions to improve the use of physiological signals (e.g. respiratory and cardiac related signals) in functional neuroimaging. Part of this effort is dedicated to compile community practices on how to record, clean, and use physiological data.

We hold monthly meetings throughout the year, part of which are community practices meetings where we discuss, as a community, what could be the "best" way to treat or use physiological data in neuroimaging.
We would like to use the emergent session to invite physiological data experts and newbies alike to join our community practices discussions in using physiological signals for neuroimaging data (with a focus on functional MRI), to provide an example of what it means to think about a problem as an international community (vs. as a single lab/team), to engage in new perspectives on these issues (for newcomers, but especially for the pre-existing community), and to get feedback on how to improve the community effort in a user-oriented way.

If room, organisation, and participation will allow it, we will run this session as a round table. Otherwise, we will structure it more as a partaken debate and/or as f.a.q. with the physiology education course faculty.
