Remember the whole #narps (www.narps.info) splash?

We are very interested in how to utilize the multiverse in neuroimaging. Because no matter how we process biological data, if we do something reasonable, the underlying results shouldn't change too much - because biology doesn't change, right?

slides stating that there is a lot of variability in fMRI analysis methods

Some solutions about variability: transparent reporting, code sharing, data sharing, preregistration

Do different analysts reach similar conclusions given the same fMRI data and pre-defined hypotheses? Nope, 70 independent teams chose 70 different analysis pipelines!
