Brain Data Science Platform increases EEG accessibility with open data and research enabled by AWS

About 4.5 million electroencephalogram (EEG) tests are performed in the US each year. That’s more than if every person in Oregon, Connecticut, or Iowa got an EEG. Because they provide insights into brain activity and not just structure, EEGs are one of the most common tests ordered by doctors to help make a diagnosis for people with brain problems. The Brain Data Science Platform (BDSP), hosted on HAQM Web Services (AWS), is increasing EEG accessibility through cooperative data sharing and research enabled by the cloud.
