Downloading the fMRI resting states and task maps from HCP (Q3)

[Shuvrarghya Ghosh]

Hi,

I am trying to download the fMRI Resting States and Task Maps from HCP, targeting only 96 subjects corresponding to Quarter 3. I am using Chrome and Aspera Connect on a Windows system. However, I am unable to download the files. I can queue them but things don't proceed further from there. Thanks,

Hi Shuvrarghya,

Did you click Download twice to start up Aspera Connect?:

If that isn't the issue you might try the items in https://wiki.humanconnectome.org/docs/Aspera%20Plugin%20Help%20and%20FAQ.html

Best,

Jenn

Thanks for the response.  Yeah I was clicking that button but in my experience, for downloading the image packages, it turns non-responsive sometimes. It worked after I refreshed the browser a couple of times.

I have a new question now. I got the resting state fMRI scans. I need to extract the 32 subcortical seed maps from the resting-state fMRI data. There are 19 subcortical regions with around 31K voxels. Can anyone suggest me the correct way to do this? Thanks,

Clicking in wb_view at the seed locations with the dynconn feature enabled for the dtseries will give you single-voxel correlation maps to the rest of the brain.

To get these maps as a file (or to use "fuzzier" seed ROIs), wb_command -cifti-average-roi-correlation should do what you want, but you first need to make a dscalar cifti file that contains an ROI for each seed, as separate maps.
