Thomas pointed out this tool for us https://neuroimage.usc.edu/brainstorm/Introduction

Apparently it can read NWB files!

Brainstorm was one of the earlier tools that had added support for NWB. If I remember correctly, it had (temporarily) dropped NWB support because of issues with supporting different versions of NWB in MatLab. Great to see that Brainstorm supports NWB again. It's a powerful tool.

I just tested Brainstorm again and can confirm that it can indeed read NWB files with ephys data. However, besides visualizing the data, I cannot get Brainstorm to do anything on the data, such as spike sorting, lfp filtering, or computing spike triggered averages. I reported this here https://neuroimage.usc.edu/forums/t/cannot-run-spike-sorting-ephys-tutorials/43182

It looks like Brainstorm chokes when it encounters neurodata types that it is not familiar with, like an ImageSeries: image . I tried with several NWB files from different dandisets.

We might need to work with them to improve support before listing Brainstorm on the overview page.
