# neurodatasets
[](https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0)
[](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
The `neurodatasets` package provides a curated collection of neuroscience and brain-related datasets
for data analysis, statistical modeling, and machine learning research. Includes biomedical voice recordings, MRI brain imaging,
Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease biomarkers, epilepsy seizures, ADHD symptoms, dopamine and serotonin measurements,
cognitive impairment, brain size across species, sleep studies, PTSD, migraine treatment, and more from curated R packages on CRAN.
## Installation
You can install the `neurodatasets` package from PyPI:
```bash
pip install neurodatasets
```
## Usage
```python
import neurodatasets as nd
# List all available datasets
datasets = nd.list_datasets()
print(datasets)
# Load a specific dataset
df = nd.load_dataset('encephalitis_herpes')
print(df.head())
# Describe dataset
df_01 = nd.describe('sleep_study_college')
print(df_01)
```
## 📊 Some Available Datasets
| Dataset | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `gray_matter_patterns` | This dataset contains expected patterns of gray matter derived from large-scale meta-analyses by the ENIGMA consortium.|
| `white_matter_patterns` | This dataset contains expected patterns of white matter derived from large-scale meta-analyses by the ENIGMA consortium.|
| `encephalitis_herpes` | This dataset contains cases of herpes encephalitis in children observed in Bavaria and Lower Saxony between 1980 and 1993.|
| `sleep_study_college` | This dataset contains data on sleep patterns and academic performance for college students.|
| `alzheimer_smoking` | This dataset contains smoking history and disease classification from a case-control study on Alzheimer's disease.|
| `brain_size_iq` | This dataset contains brain size, IQ scores and gender data from psychology students for intelligence research.|
| `mammal_brains` | This dataset contains brain weight, body weight, gestation length and litter size across 96 mammal species.|
| `chimp_brains` | This dataset contains Brodmann's area 44 asymmetry measurements in chimpanzees by sex.|
> Run `neurodatasets.list_datasets()` or `nd.list_datasets()` (using `nd` as alias) to see the full list of available datasets.
