To organize your data in BIDS, all you need is neuro data, a computer, and the
[BIDS specification](https://bids-specification.readthedocs.io/en/stable/).

BIDS currently supports MRI, MEG, EEG, iEEG, behavioral, and physiological data
and more modalities will be added.
BIDS currently supports the following data modalities with more to come in the future:

- MRI
- MEG
- EEG
- iEEG
- behavioral
- physiological
- PET

1. **Data type** - a functional group of different types of data.
BIDS defines eight data types:
`func` (task based and resting state functional MRI),
`dwi` (diffusion weighted imaging),
`fmap` (field inhomogeneity mapping data such as field maps),
`anat` (structural imaging such as T1, T2, PD, and so on),
`meg` (magnetoencephalography),
`eeg` (electroencephalography),
`ieeg` (intracranial electroencephalography),
`beh` (behavioral).
BIDS defines the following data types:

Data files are contained in a directory named for the data type.
In raw datasets, the data type directory is nested inside subject and
(optionally) session directories.
