# NWB **Entity class:** Technology, concept, place, event, or ecosystem entity **Collections:** [[collections/Neurotech|Neurotech]] · [[collections/Consciousness Continuity|Consciousness Continuity]] **Relationship source:** [[research/Consciousness Mapping and Transfer Ecosystem Relationship Graph - 2026-09-10|Consciousness Mapping and Transfer Ecosystem Relationship Graph — 2026-09-10]] ## Definition **NWB** is represented in the supplied consciousness-mapping and transfer relationship graph through the source-qualified relationships below. The entry preserves direction, predicate, evidence key, quantitative context, and epistemic status without treating analogy, adjacency, shared physics, or technical convergence as proof of ownership, funding, program lineage, technology transfer, operational integration, or institutional control. <!-- BEGIN CONSCIOUSNESS MAPPING TRANSFER RELATIONSHIP GRAPH 2026-09-10 --> ## Relationships ### Consciousness mapping and transfer graph patch — 2026-09-10 **Collections:** [[collections/Neurotech|Neurotech]] · [[collections/Consciousness Continuity|Consciousness Continuity]] **Relationship source:** [[research/Consciousness Mapping and Transfer Ecosystem Relationship Graph - 2026-09-10|Consciousness Mapping and Transfer Ecosystem Relationship Graph — 2026-09-10]] **Related source articles:** [[articles/Technologies for Consciousness Mapping and Transfer|Technologies for Consciousness Mapping and Transfer]] · [[articles/The Architecture of Continuity and Emerging Neuroinformatics Standards|The Architecture of Continuity and Emerging Neuroinformatics Standards]] · [[articles/2026 Annual Report on Brain-Computer Interfaces|2026 Annual Report on Brain-Computer Interfaces]] · [[articles/The Organic-Synthetic Brain Atlas|The Organic-Synthetic Brain Atlas]] #### Outgoing typed edges - **Edge 366 — `initial_scientific_partner` → [[wiki/Allen Institute|Allen Institute for Brain Science]]** — **PRIOR_NEUROTECH_VERIFIED**; evidence `NWB_ABOUT`. - **Edge 367 — `initial_scientific_partner` → [[wiki/Svoboda Lab at Janelia|Svoboda Lab at Janelia]]** — **PRIOR_NEUROTECH_VERIFIED**; evidence `NWB_ABOUT`. - **Edge 368 — `initial_scientific_partner` → [[wiki/Meister Lab at Caltech|Meister Lab at Caltech]]** — **PRIOR_NEUROTECH_VERIFIED**; evidence `NWB_ABOUT`. - **Edge 369 — `initial_scientific_partner` → [[wiki/Buzsáki Lab at NYU|Buzsáki Lab at NYU]]** — **PRIOR_NEUROTECH_VERIFIED**; evidence `NWB_ABOUT`. - **Edge 370 — `initial_scientific_partner` → UC Berkeley / CRCNS.org maintainers** — **PRIOR_NEUROTECH_VERIFIED**; evidence `NWB_ABOUT`. - **Edge 371 — `leadership` → [[wiki/Oliver Rübel|Oliver Rübel]]** — **PRIOR_NEUROTECH_VERIFIED**; evidence `NWB_ABOUT`, `NWB_GRANTS`.

EPFL/AWS open-data lineage. #### Incoming typed edges - **Edge 378 — [[wiki/DANDI|DANDI]] `data_standard` → this entry** — **PRIOR_NEUROTECH_VERIFIED**; evidence `DANDI_DOC`. #### Epistemic boundary Primary-source, peer-reviewed, company-claim, preprint, analytic, inherited-corpus, dynamic-metric, source-version-conflict, and unresolved states remain distinct. A current primary source supersedes a stale uncertainty label without erasing the correction history. No edge establishes ownership, funding, licensing, program lineage, technology transfer, operational integration, or institutional control unless its predicate and evidence explicitly do so. <!-- END CONSCIOUSNESS MAPPING TRANSFER RELATIONSHIP GRAPH 2026-09-10 -->
