Here's an interesting paper from Nick about how we can reduce the carbon
footprint of fMRI analysis.

Let me know what you think :)

Hi all,
Hope you're all doing well :)
I've just released the preprint for my first post-doc paper
<https://osf.io/7q5mh/>! It's a short perspective piece focusing on 10
steps neuroimagers can take to reduce the carbon footprint of their
research computing (preprocessing and analysis). Thought I would share here
in case there is anything actionable you could take away from it.
In particular, there is stuff about long term data storage and data
cleaning which might be relevant to issues with freeing up space on the
FLEXSEM drive at YNiC. As part of this, we've developed a tool called
fMRIPrepCleanup <https://github.com/NickESouter/fMRIPrepCleanup>
specifically designed to comb over fMRIPrep output and delete all the junk
files (although take caution using it, as covered in the readme!!).
Thanks!
Nick
