We were unable to find all the sequence parameters for the BCP. However, the researchers of BCP state they attempt to match as much as possible the imaging parameters of the other HCP studies (Howell et al. 2019).

**

For the HBN study, currently only one of the imaging sites (Citigroup Biomedical Imaging Center - CBIC) is collecting two structural scans for all subjects.

Turbo factor for the HBN MPRAGE sequence is 196.

Turbo factor for the HBN MPRAGE+PMC sequence is 256.
